Demonstrate Proficient Movement Skills (Course 2)

When students pursue and attain proficient movement skills, they combine and apply movement patterns (overarm throw pattern, striking, etc.) in a variety of ways to advance their learning and expand the number and type of physical activities they can successfully enjoy. Students come to high school ready to build on the movement pattern proficiency they developed in kindergarten through eighth grade. They can synthesize much of what they have learned in the earlier grade levels and apply it to the learning of movement skills using both familiar and new movement patterns and skills. By the end of Course 2, students demonstrate proficient movement skills in gymnastics and tumbling, combatives, and team activities.
