Element 1.3
Describe and apply motor development theory and principles related to skillful movement, physical activity, and fitness.
Reflection:
In Motor Development class I observed children to assess their skill levels of certain movements. One lab that I did involved leaping, horizontal jumping, and sliding. I observed one male kindergartner and one female kindergartner do the skills that critiqued their motor skills. This experience will be helpful for teaching because i will be able to teach new locomotor skills to students and give positive and constructive feedback.
