The Fundamental Movement Skills
What are they?A specific set of skills that involve different body parts:feet, legs, trunk, arms, hands, and head.
Why are they important?• They are the ‘building blocks’ for more complex and specialised skill development.• For future participation in physical activity and organised sport.
At what age should FMS be taught?The earlier the FMS are introduced through play and exploration, the more likely children will be to engage in physical activity throughout their lives – developing competence and confidence.

Detecting and Correcting FMS
✓ Observe children performing the skill
✓ Demonstrate the skill
✓ If the skill is too difficult, break it down into smaller movements
✓ Use short instructions and imaginative language
✓ Refer to resources (M&M lanyards, FMS with Franky & Friends, FMS in action)
✓ Practice, practice, practice!It takes 240-600
minutes of explicit teaching and
practice for a child learn one skill!
Catch softly, don’t break

Case Study
Carter (4) struggles to catch a ball.
When a ball is thrown, he tends to close his eyes before trying to catch.
Carter holds his arms rigid and high in front of him. His hands are hard and straight with his fingers pointing to the sky.
Carter gets upset and angry with himself and eventually stops wanting to join in the games.
How could you modify the skill 'catching' to help Carter?

Extension: Relays to collect the thrown objects
Experience: Ryder's Rescue Mission
Game: Print separate pictures of all characters and their vehicles. Hide these around the area. Children can use any locomotor skill to move around. Find and match the pictures.
