  1. Foundations of Movment

  2. MOVEMENT WHEEL LOCOMOTOR: Movement with travel. NON-LOCOMOTOR: Movement not associated with travel (twisting, stretching, reaching…etc) MANIPULATIVE: Movement involving an object. ( Throwing a ball, striking with a racket)

  3. Components of Movement • SPACE AWARENESS: Where the body moves. • 1. Locations • 2. Directions • 3. Levels • 4. Pathways • 5. Extensions

  4. REALATIONSHIPS • 1. Relationships of body parts • 2. With Objects • 3. With People

  5. EFFORT: How the Body Moves • 1. Time (Fast/Slow) • 2. Force (Strong/Light) • 3. Flow (Bound/Free)

  6. STARTING WITH THE BASICS • K-2 Physical Education: Begin with the Locomotors. • Walking • Running Fleeing/Dodging • Skipping • Galloping • Sliding • Hopping

  7. Skill Themes • Not just content, but also the process of teaching • Developed from an ethic of encouraging children to develop positive attitudes about activity • Skill themes are based upon developmentally appropriate practices

  8. Definition • Fundamental movements that are later modified to more specialized patterns • Involves the development of activities of increasing complexity • Involve locomotor, nonlocomotor and manipulative skills

  9. Characteristics of Skill Themes • Competence in performance is a major purpose • versus an emphasis on game play • Designed to provide experiences appropriate to a child’s developmental level • as opposed to age or grade level • Scope and sequence of skill themes are designed to reflect the needs of students over a period of years • frequent revisiting of themes

  10. Constructing Commonalities • Select any sport • Identify the basic skills • both movement and manipulative • Identify the carry over skills to one other game • Themes apply to different sports, although their use differs in context and emphasis

  11. Locomotor Skill Themes • Walking • Running • Hopping • Skipping • Galloping • Sliding • Chasing, Fleeing and Dodging

  12. Throwing Catching and Collecting Kicking Punting Dribbling Volleying Striking with rackets Striking with long handled implements Manipulative Skills

  13. Turning Twisting Rolling Balancing Transferring weight Jumping and landing Stretching Curling Nonmanipulative Themes

  14. Movement Concepts • Are ideas used to modify or enrich the range and effectiveness of skill employment • Skill themes are always verbs • things you can DO • Movement concepts are always modifiers • descriptions of how • Children need to learn and understand the movement concept vocabulary • e.g. light force

  15. Generic Levels of Skill Proficiency • A key challenge in teaching is to match the task to the ability of the child • and we know how those vary • We can identify 4 generic levels of skill • precontrol, control, utilization, proficiency • Children can vary significantly across skill themes for their levels of proficiency • Therefore, within a given task, we need to use strategies for individualizing performance
