Fun Start, Move Smart! Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) Introductory Workshop

Title

“Fun Start, Move Smart! Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) Introductory Workshop” by Freeplay

(For All NROC Coaches & Preschool Educators)

Description

FUN Start MOVE Smart workshop is for early child educators to introduce and enhance the teaching of Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) to children aged 2 to 8 years old. FMS form the building blocks that underpin daily living activities.

These skills refer to movements such as walking, running, leaping, balancing, throwing, catching and much more. The early years are critical in helping children build this foundation of basic movement skills. Children who lack movement skill competency will be less likely to acquire sports-specific and complex movements in their growing years.

This workshop equips educators the skill to help children achieve physical literacy and prepare them for an active and enriching lifestyle in adulthood.
