Abstract
Physical literacy is a fundamental human capacity, indispensable for the way in which human beings create and lead their lives, and an essential factor in quality of life, and that childhood and adolescence are critical periods for an effective promotion of physical literacy. Thus, the defense will be made that Physical Education must be understood as a project of innovation and cultural transformation, that aims to form a physically literate person, aware of their rights and duties, giving all children and adolescents the opportunity to acquire the knowledge and develop the attitudes and skills necessary for an emancipated, satisfactory and prolonged participation in the culture of movement throughout life, in a democratic society. First, we will try to clarify what is meant by physical literacy and then we will describe the role that physical education should play in the development of physical literacy, describing the topics to be considered by a teaching methodology capable of promoting motivation, knowledge, confidence and motor skills, that is, the attributes necessary for the practice of physical activity and sport throughout life.
