MOVEMENT EDU

1. ACTIVITY: METAMORPHOSIS Choose one of the following situations and prepare a short movement performance to represent the transformation process: From seeds to a big tree From cocoons to butterflies From eggs to frogs

2. Guidelines for the Performance: Your movements should tell the story of the transformation (e.g., how a seed grows into a tree or how a butterfly emerges from a cocoon). Focus on using your body movements to express the different stages of change (e.g., stretching, crawling, jumping, etc.). Be creative! You may incorporate transitions, levels (low to high movements), and tempo (slow to fast movements).

3. Processing Questions: What differences did you notice in your classmates' performances? What can we learn from them? How does understanding the nature of movement help us appreciate or better understand transformations in real life?

4. MEANING AND NATURE OF MOVEMENT

5. Natural movements

6. Natural movements - are the full range of movements the human body has always needed for survival.

7. Movement is Ancient.

8. Foundation of all activities…

9. Movement as a change of locations or positions, a group of people with a shared purpose or a development or change that occurs.

10. What is Movement Education? It is a strand of teaching or education which aims to educate individuals to develop their motor skills through physical movement.

11. Movement Education as the Tool for Physical Literacy Development Movement education focuses on teaching fundamental movement skills (e.g., running, jumping, balancing, throwing). These skills are essential for developing physical literacy, which is the ability, confidence, and motivation to move effectively in various physical activities and environments.

12. Movement Education Builds Body Awareness Through movement education, individuals become aware of how their bodies move in space, time, and effort. This aligns with physical literacy, which emphasizes understanding one’s body and how it interacts with the environment.

13. Promotes Lifelong Physical Activity Movement education teaches not just skills but also the enjoyment of moving, fostering a positive attitude toward physical activity. Physical literacy includes motivation, and movement education plays a role in inspiring individuals to stay active throughout their lives.

14. Enhances Social and Emotional Skills Movement education often involves group activities and problem-solving tasks, which help students develop communication, teamwork, and emotional resilience. Physical literacy includes these interpersonal and intrapersonal skills as part of holistic development.

15. Addresses the Whole Person Movement education doesn’t just focus on physical skills; it integrates emotional, cognitive, and social learning. Physical literacy shares this holistic approach, aiming to empower individuals with the confidence and competence to move in meaningful ways.

16. History and Philosophy of Movement Education

17. Creators of a New Idea: Movement Education in the 1800s to Early 1900s Francois Delsarte He was one of the first people to articulate ideas of movement. This era was influenced by Romanticism, which emphasized the notion of expression of thought and emotion. Saw movement as a union of time, space, and motion Introduced the idea of parallelism 9 laws of motion which referred to altitude, force, motion, sequence, direction, form, velocity, reaction and extension

18. Creators of a New Idea: Movement Education in the 1800s to Early 1900s Liselott Diem Founded a college in Germany to train teachers in sport and physical education “Deutsche Sporthochschule Koln” “Natural approach to teaching children to move effectively in all kinds of situation” Explore freely in their own way Teachers role was to provide an environment that supported and fostered free movements

19. Creators of a New Idea: Movement Education in the 1800s to Early 1900s Rudolf Von Laban The body was an instrument of expression and made a distinction between this expressive movement and movements that serve a purpose in everyday life Weight, space, time, and flow are the building blocks for movement education

20. Four Cornerstones of Movement SPACE/FOCUS Direction that you’re moving into It can be direct or indirect TIME Can be quick or sustained WEIGHT Be heavy or light FLOW Bound or free

21. Eight Elements of Laban Movements Punch – Direct, Quick, Heavy, Bound Dab – Direct, Quick, Light, Bound Press – Direct, Sustain, Heavy, Bound Glide – Direct, Sustain, Light, Free Slash – Indirect, Quick, Heavy, Free Flick – Indirect, Quick, Light, Free Wring – Indirect, Sustain, Heavy, Bound Float – Indirect, Sustain, Light, Free

22. Evolution of Movement Education Movement Education started in the 1800s Three of the most influential people are Francois Delsarte, Liselott Diem, and Rudolph Von Laban. In the early 1900s, Laban identified the four cornerstones of movement: weight, space, time, and flow. In the late 70s and early 80s, Stanley, Logsdon and his colleagues distinguished the four major movement concepts, based on Laban’s discoveries. Stanley, Logsdon and his colleagues classified body, space, effort and relationship.

23. Evolution of Movement Education During the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s, the intent of those working at this time was to provide a framework that teachers could use to apply these movement concepts broadly in the 3 learning domains Growth of movement education; brought to the forefront of elementary physical education

24. Fitness Overshadows Movement Education The fitness boom of the 1970s resulted in a base of research that contributed a solid scientific basis to the study of movement. As other curriculum models were introduced that were easier to understand and appealed to the fitness and activity focus of the time, movement education faded from popularity.

25. The Revival of Movement Education In the late 1990s and early 2000s, the development of national content standards for physical education brought back the essence of movement education Emphasizing that children should know basic movement concepts and be able to perform basic movement patterns.

26. Movement Education: At the Heart of Physical Education Standard 1. Demonstrate competency in motor skills and movement patterns needed to perform a variety of physical activities. Standard 2. Demonstrate understanding of movement concepts, principles, strategies, and tactics as they apply to the learning and performance of physical activities.

27. The Philosophy that Makes Movement Education Different 1. Student problem solving in Movement Education Success for all The context of the model means that it allows for and encourages divergent thinking among your students. So, there’s often multiple right answers to a movement problem that you kind of present to your students as a teacher.

28. The Philosophy that Makes Movement Education Different Student problem solving in Movement Education b. Activity for All Means that the Movement Education model is inclusive by nature and through the promotion of divergent thinking like we mentioned with success for all, that first belief, students learn to be active by moving their bodies in ways that allow for creativity, meaning, and enjoyment.

29. The Philosophy that Makes Movement Education Different Student problem solving in Movement Education c. Contribution by All Means that movements could look different from one student to another, and they often will, and that should be promoted and encouraged, and students will learn to appreciate the difference in their movement from one person to another within their class.

30. The Philosophy that Makes Movement Education Different 2. Guided Problem Solving in Movement Education According to Mosston and Ashworth (1986), the guided discovery approach involve students solving teacher-created problems with guidance from the teacher. In addition to guided discovery, teachers also provide students with learning cues.

31. The Philosophy that Makes Movement Education Different 3. Providing Choices Enhances Learning One way to present a challenge is to provide extension, making the task either easier or harder as needed.

32. BENEFITS OF MOVEMENT EDUCATION Contributes to the physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development of children. Engaging in socially active learning environment, fosters teamwork and cooperation. Positive learning experiences in physical education can contribute to exploring leisure and recreational activities. Encouraging students to progress promotes self-esteem and maintains motivation

33. BENEFITS OF MOVEMENT EDUCATION Competency in FMS builds strength, endurance and flexibility Foundation for leading a physically active lifestyle that reduces the health risk of obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.

34. Fundamental Body Movements Fundamental Body Movements are the foundations for physical activities such as games, sports, and recreational activities. They are specific collection of skills that involve various body parts but should NOT be confused with sporting abilities.

35. Types of Fundamental Body Movements Locomotor movements -refer to the body’s movements, where the body travels from one location to another point. Non-locomotor movements -sometimes called axial movements, refer to the body movements without allowing the body to travel.

36. Fundamental Movement Skills FMS are set of skills that require the use of different body parts, such as feet, legs, shoulders, body, head, arms, and hands. They are the foundation for more advanced and specialized skills that learners will need to participate in various games, sports, and leisure activities during their lives. FMS can be categorized into three groups: Body management skills Locomotor skills Object control skills

37. Body Management Skills Body management skills involve balancing the body in stillness and in motion. Examples: Rolling Stopping Bending Twisting Landing Stretching Climbing Static and Dynamic Balancing Turning

38. Locomotor Skills Locomotor skills involve transporting the body in any direction from one point to another.  Examples: Crawling Running Galloping Walking Hopping Skipping Dodging

39. Object Control Skills Object control skills require controlling implements and objects such as balls, hoops, bats and ribbons by hand, by foot or with any other part of the body. Examples:; Throwing Catching Striking Bouncing Dribbling Kicking

40. Components to develop perceptual-motor learning Body Awareness Learning a person’s body parts and understanding what the parts can do, and moving the parts. 2. Spatial Awareness Knowing how much space the body occupies and utilizing the body in physical space. 3. Directional Awareness Understanding left and right, up and down, in and out , top and bottom and front and back.

41. Components to develop perceptual-motor learning 4. Temporal Awareness The construction of an internal time structure that identifies movement-time relationships 5. Relationship Awareness Understanding with what the body makes movements, or with whom the body makes the movements.

42. Movement Strategies Refers to various approaches that will help you or your team successfully achieve a movement outcome or goal. Movement strategies include moving into physical space to receive pass from a teammate or hitting a ball away from opponents to make it difficult to retrieve or return the ball.

43. Movement Principles Principle 1: Breathing Movement facilitates Breath. Breath facilitates Movement. Holding your breath does the opposite to your body. When you hold your breath you increase the abdominal pressure, pause all vital organs, increase the pressure in your lumbar spine and much more! Please Breathe!

44. Movement Principles Principle 2: Organization of the head, neck & shoulders The position of your head over your neck and shoulders will increase the awareness of your internal balance and orientation to the external world.

45. Movement Principles Principle 3: Axial Elongation Axial elongation places the body in its optimal position to increase available degrees of freedom and increase efficiency of movement.

46. Movement Principles Principle 4: Core Control It means that you are effectively, timely and efficiently activating the superficial and deep core stabilizing muscles according to the demand of the activity to be performed.

47. Movement Principles Principle 6: Alignment of the Extremities “Ideal Alignment involves all body parts approximating toward the central axis, as much as structure permits.” -Eric Franklin

48. Movement Principles Principle 7: Movement Integration "The movement of the mind is reflected in the movement of the body, and the movement of the body in the movement of the mind. To move is to develop the strength of this dynamic relationship between the mind, body and the living synergy of one's environment." - Dawn Strom
