Chapter 16Fundamental Motor Skillsand Introductory Activities


Fundamental Motor Skills

Basic or functional skills

Skills children need to function effectively

Basic human movements Walking

Twisting

Running

Jumping

Stretching



Locomotor Move from one place to another

Nonlocomotor No appreciable movement from place to place



Locomotor skills—walking Each foot moves alternately

One foot always contacting the floor

Instructional cues

Head up, eyes forward

Point toes straight ahead

Nice, easy, relaxed arm swing

Walk quietly

Hold tummy in, chest up

Push off from floor with toes



Locomotor skills—running Moving rapidly

Flight phase (both feet off ground)

Instructional cues Run on the balls of the feet Head up, eyes forward Bend your knees Relax your upper body Breathe naturally Swing the arms forward and backward, not

sideways



Locomotor skills—hopping Propel body up and down

Take off and land on same foot

In place or locomotor movement

Instructional cues

Hop with good forward motion

Stay on your toes

Use your arms for balance

Reach for the sky when you hop

Land lightly



Locomotor skills—jumping Taking off with both feet and landing on both feet

Instructional cues

Swing your arms forward as fast as possible

Bend your knees

On your toes

Land lightly with bent knees

Jump up and try to touch the ceiling



Locomotor skills—sliding Lead foot steps to side, other follows quickly

Sideways gallop

Instructional cues

Move sideways

Do not bounce

Slide your feet



Locomotor skills—galloping Similar to skip

Progress is made in forward direction

More upward motion than sliding

Instructional cues

Keep one foot in front of the other

Now lead with the other foot

Make high gallops



Locomotor skills—leaping Elongated step designed to cover distance

Usually combined with running

Take off on one foot and land on the other

Instructional cues

Push off and reach

Up and over, land lightly

Use your arms to help you gain height



Locomotor skills—skipping Series of step-hops with alternate feet

Instructional cues

“Step-hop”

Swing your arms

Skip smoothly

On your toes



Nonlocomotor skills—bending Movement at a joint

Instructional cues

Bend as far as possible

Bend one part while holding others steady



Nonlocomotor skills—rocking and swaying Center of gravity is fluidly transferred

Base of support is unchanged in swaying

Instructional cues

Rock smoothly

Rock in different directions and at varying speeds

Rock higher (farther)

Sway until you almost lose your balance



Nonlocomotor skills—swinging Movement of body parts resembling swinging rope

Most swinging is confined to arms and legs

Instructional cues

Loosen up

Swing easy

Swing fully

Swing in rhythm



Nonlocomotor skills—turning Rotation around the long axis of the body

Movement of the body as a whole

Initiated by a twist

Instructional cues

Keep your balance

In jump turns, land relaxed with knees bent

Be precise in your movement, whether it is a quarter, half, or full turn



Nonlocomotor skills—twisting Rotation of selected body part around its own long

axis

Joints of different body parts are used for twisting

Movement around body part itself

Instructional cues

Twist far (fully)

Stabilize body parts

Twist the other way

Some joints are better for twisting than others



Nonlocomotor skills—stretching Moves body parts away from the body center

Involves moving a joint through range of movement

Necessary for maintaining and increasing flexibility

Instructional cues

Stretch as far as possible

Find other ways to stretch the body part

Keep it smooth



Nonlocomotor skills—pushing Controlled and forceful action

Move the body away from object

Move the object in a desired direction

Instructional cues

Broaden your foot base

Use all your body forces

Push steadily

Lower yourself for a better push



Nonlocomotor skills—pulling Controlled and forceful action

Moves an object closer to the body

Moves the body closer to an object

Instructional cues

Get your body in line with the pull

Lower yourself

Widen your base of support
