PEK.5
Vary, with guidance, the movement of the body through changes in:
  • space (personal space, general space, levels, directions, and pathways)
  • effort (time and speed)
  • relationships (body parts and shapes).
Indicators for this outcome
(a)

Move the body through space following given directions (e.g., "stay in personal space and stretch your body as big as you can; now make your body as small as you can", "move through general space on hands and feet staying low to the floor – move forward, backward, sideways").

(b)

Recognize and respond to movement vocabulary (e.g., personal space, general space, balance, high, zig-zag).

(c)

Create and perform movements, in sequence of at least two phrases, to represent images (e.g., riding a horse quickly, slowly; climbing a fence then balancing on a plank over some water; walking like a robot then stretching the body high to the sky while moving forward).

(d)

Move from one point to another, through moving classmates, trying not to contact anyone else.

(e)

Respond physically and correctly to instructions that vary the direction, levels, pathways, and effort of the body movement (e.g., walk backward slowly and lightly, move on hands and feet keeping body as low to the ground as possible).

(f)

Move in personal space and general space on various body parts (e.g., "move body parts as fast as you can while remaining seated in your personal space"; "move across the floor while remaining seated"; and "move across the floor on your hands and feet").

(g)

Move over, under, around, behind, in front of, on, and off a variety of objects.

(h)

Practise freezing any movement when signalled to do so.
