Confidence and competence in delivering physical activity and physical literacy opportunities for your students consists not only of understanding the terms and incorporating relevant activities in your school day, but also in being able to gauge your students physical literacy levels.

Wondering how you can assess physical literacy in your K-7 class? The Physical Literacy Assessment workshop is for you!

This workshop demonstrates how to use PLAYbasic for Educators as a physical literacy assessment tool. By observing how your students move, you can plan your physical literacy activities and support your students learning over time.

By the end of the workshop, you will be able to: 

  • understand the importance of assessment of physical literacy,
  • use the PLAYbasic for Educators tool, and
  • observe how students move.

The assessment time is short, the equipment list is accessible and available at all schools, and the tool involves minimal training to administer. The tool is intended for elementary school students in kindergarten to Grade 7, and is designed to be implemented across these grades (no difference required for different grades).
