Do you have Movement Literacy?

Movement literacy is about knowing how to read your environment through the medium of your body.

This is also referred to as Physical literacy.

Physical Literacy is the mastering of fundamental movement / sport skills that permit a child to read their environment and make appropriate decisions, allowing them to move confidently and with control in a wide range of physical activity situations.

Physically literate individuals consistently develop the motivation and ability to understand, communicate, apply, and analyse different forms of movement.

They are able to demonstrate a variety of movements confidently, competently, creatively and strategically across a wide range of health-related physical activities.

These skills enable individuals to make healthy, active choices that are both beneficial to and respectful of their whole self, others, and their environment.
