Physical Development and Movement
Page last updated at 1:18 PM, 30/01/2008
We want to provide learning opportunities or children to:
- enjoy energetic activity both indoors and out and the feeling of wellbeing that it brings;
- explore a range of different ways in which they can use their bodies in physical activity;
- express ideas and feelings and respond to music and imaginative ideas in rhythmic and expressive movement;
- run, jump, skip, balance, throw and catch with increasing skills and confidence;
- co-operate with others in physical play and games;
- develop increasing control of fine movement of their fingers and hands;
- be safe in movement and in using tools and equipment.
