Course Overview
Introduction
The role of physical education in the school curriculum is to help students develop the
competencies and beliefs necessary for incorporating regular physical activity into their lives.
Through involvement in a well-taught physical education program, students can achieve physical
and personal benefits. An important part of a comprehensive physical education program is
instruction in fundamental motor skills. Fundamental motor skills, such as the run, leap, catch
and overhand throw, form the building blocks which underpin the learning of more complicated
sport and movement skills common to the community. Without fundamental motor skill
competence, students are less likely to learn related sport and movement skills. Fundamental
motor skill competence has been shown to influence students in many ways. Students who have
achieved fundamental motor skill competence have been found to successfully participate in a
range of sports and movement activities and maintain involvement during childhood and
adolescence. Regular involvement in sport and movement activities leads to gains in health-
related physical fitness. How students feel about themselves can be influenced by their physical
skills. Students who have achieved fundamental motor skill competence have been found to
perceive themselves as being competent, socially accepted and to have a positive attitude
towards physical activity. In essence, fundamental motor skill competence assists in preparing
students for a healthy lifestyle.
