Acesso em:.1982-5374https://repositorio.ufpa.br/handle/2011/13118This work aims to analyze the students' perception regarding the interest in the Physical Education classes of a public school and with this raise possible resolutions for these problems in order to provide classes with quality and interest and participation of the students. For that, a questionnaire with 15 questions was applied and applied to 39 students of both sexes of a public school located in a city in the interior of the parana. As a result, one can see repetitive activities, students with little motivation to participate in practical classes, and yet a well-prepared school in their infrastructure for activities. It is evidenced the absence of a common project for the teaching activity in Physical education that motivated and enabled the subjects to approach and participate actively in the classes of the discipline.Acesso Abertohttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/Educação físicaEscola públicaPercepção de alunosPhysical educationPublic schoolPerception of studentsArtigo de Periódico10.18542/rmi.v12i19.7846
