Product description

From the author

Assess running, leaping, galloping, side-sliding, hopping, horizontal jumping and skipping with seven locomotor-skill rubrics. Each includes movement cues, separate student and teacher score columns, comments and skill-specific total bands.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Can I compare totals across different skills?

The rubrics have different numbers of components and different total-score bands. Compare a student’s progress within the same skill instead of treating different skill totals as equivalent.
