Fundamental Movement Skills
•Year 2
•6 Lessons
This unit establishes core movement competencies that underpin all future PE learning, combining locomotor skills (jumping, skipping) with object control (ball handling, catching, passing). The thoughtful progression from individual body mastery to partner collaboration builds both physical literacy and social skills. Each lesson targets specific movement patterns whilst developing decision-making abilities and spatial awareness in a supportive, exploratory environment.
