Youth cultures in high school

There are currently many questions regarding young people's lack of interest in school, and countless assumptions have been made to explain this youth "rebellion." Teaching this audience has been a challenge, and therefore, knowing and understanding youth manifestations can help teachers in this arduous and rewarding task. This work is a research study that sought to investigate the manifestations of Youth Cultures related to the Physical Culture of Movement among young students at a high school and how they interact with the subject of Physical Education. As a result, we found that the manifestations of youth cultures related to the body culture of movement among the young people investigated are neither homogeneous nor static and that, by validating different cultures in class, young people felt included and represented. By valuing youth manifestations, the school acquires a new meaning for young people, ceasing to be a discouraging place and becoming an extension of youth spaces. This work is mainly aimed at school subjects - teachers and administrators.
