Monitoring progress<br />
Recording children's skill levels for each fundamental movement skill will assist services to<br />
determine which children may need more opportunities to discover and explore certain skills and<br />
which children are ready for extension and challenge. Keep in mind that only some of the children<br />
at your service would be at either the utilisation level or the proficiency level for one or more<br />
fundamental movement skills; most would be at either the pre-control level or control level.<br />
It is also useful to assess the success of the learning experience, i.e. did the provisions have an<br />
element of challenge appropriate to each child or were they too hard or too easy for most children?<br />
The provisions can then be adjusted immediately or next time to account for the differing levels of<br />
confidence and proficiency.<br />
See the Physical Activity Handbook – Preschoolers (Figures 1 to 3, page P.22–23)<br />
for three examples of tools or documentation methods to assist in monitoring<br />
fundamental movement skills.<br />
Please note that these are only examples and your service may already have unique and innovative<br />
practices which could be shared with the <strong>Good</strong> for <strong>Kids</strong> program and other services.<br />
