| Sumario: | The study was conducted to understand the attitude of 10th-grade students of Phuentshothang School, Bhutan, to know their interest in physics for reflective planning and teaching. The quantitative study was carried out using a survey research design. Research questionnaires were validated with Cronbach's alpha of 0.76, greater than 0.7. Data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and Paired ttest for two samples mean using Microsoft Excel. The findings revealed a high personal interest in learning physics and problem-solving in physics with a significant gender difference with P<0.05, where male students showed higher personal interest and positive attitude in solving physics problems compared to the female students. The participants expressed a high positive attitude in terms of linking physics to the real world with no significant gender difference. The participants also responded to having a high positive attitude toward the time and effort needed to learn physics, where no significant gender differences were observed. There was a negative attitude toward understanding laws, theories, and physics concepts with no gender difference. Recommendations are made to the subject teacher based on the findings.
