Movement Knowledge

  • 2.1:

    Demonstrate understanding of movement concepts, principles, strategies and tactics as they apply to the learning and performance of physical activities.

    2. 2.

      Identify and apply critical cues and concepts of body, space, effort, and relationships that vary the quality of movement (e.g., side to target, move in personal space, throw hard for distance, name different pathways, etc.).K-2.PE.2.1.2
