Goal 1

STANDARD/GOAL ONE: Students will develop competency in all fundamental movement skills and proficiency in some movement forms.

Indicator 1: Students will model complex locomotor movement patterns in specialized activities.

3-5 Benchmarks:

  1. demonstrate mature form in all locomotor skills within movement patterns.
  2. demonstrate smooth transitions between sequential locomotor skills within activities and/or games.
  3. determine the effectiveness of transferring fundamental locomotor skills into modified activities and/or games.
3-5 Level Sample Activities/Tasks:
  1. complete an obstacle course using each of the fundamental locomotor skills
  2. perform a running long jump
  3. defend opponent(s) in 2 on 2 basketball

 Indicator 2: Students will apply correct technique when performing complex manipulative movement patterns in specialized activities.

3-5 Benchmarks:

  1. demonstrate mature form in all manipulative skills within movement patterns.
  2. demonstrate smooth transitions between sequential manipulative skills within activities and/or games.
  3. determine the effectiveness of transferring fundamental manipulative movement patterns into modified activities and/or games.
3-5 Level Sample Activities/Tasks:
  1. soccer kick at a goal
  2. field a ground ball, then throw to a target
  3. perform the appropriate method of passing a volleyball to a teammate

 Indicator 3: Students will exhibit a mature kinesthetic sense in non-locomotor/stability movement patterns in specialized activities.

3-5 Benchmarks:

  1. respond to various forces to maintain static or dynamic balance while performing basic skills.
  2. maintain body equilibrium in basic movement patterns in modified physical activities and/or games.
  3. determine the effectiveness of kinesthetic adjustments made during basic non-locomotor/stability movement patterns.
3-5 Level Sample Activities/Tasks:
  1. perform a cartwheel
  2. extend into a headstand from a tripod position
  3. angel balance with a partner for 3 seconds
