The effect of a physical recreation curriculum on developing some motor skills among third-grade primary school students

Abstract

         The problem of the research is summarized in the appearance of a decline in the level of important motor skills necessary for third grade primary school students in the physical education lesson in particular and in their daily lives in general, which require continuous growth and development. The importance of the research lies in using a physical recreation approach in order to develop their motor skills. The objectives of the research are: preparing a physical recreation curriculum to develop some motor skills among third-grade primary school students and identifying the effect of the prepared physical recreation curriculum in developing their motor skills. Its hypotheses are summarized in two hypotheses: There are statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-tests and for the experimental and control groups and in favor of the post-tests. For the experimental group, there are significant differences between the experimental and control groups in the post-tests of some motor skills among third-grade primary school students, in favor of the experimental group. The experimental method was used for its suitability and research procedures. The research population consisted of (60) students, and a sample of (40) students was divided into two groups. (Experimental and controlled) as tests of the scientific foundations (honesty, consistency, objectivity) were conducted on (6) members of the indigenous community, and the researcher concluded the following: The prepared physical recreation approach has an effect in developing some of the motor skills investigated, and the emergence of development in some Motor skills for the experimental group. It was recommended that it is necessary to use a physical recreation curriculum prepared by the researcher in primary schools in order to develop motor skills from multiple aspects, as well as the necessity of preparing programs concerned with various games and exercises and applying them in physical education lessons because they contribute to developing students’ physical skills and abilities.
