ES1: Fundamental Movement Skills

ES1: Developing Fundamental Movement Skills: Exploring Locomotion and Stability
Tailored for elementary-aged students, this unit delves into the foundational aspects of movement: locomotor and non-locomotor skills. Through an assortment of captivating activities, students will journey from basic motions to more complex sequences, enhancing their agility and balance. As they refine their locomotor techniques, such as walking, jumping, and running, and master non-locomotor movements like twisting, turning, and bending, they’ll cultivate a robust sense of physical literacy and movement confidence.
