WHO
![Page 9: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Children ≠ Miniature Adults
![Page 10: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Developmental Continuum
Reflexive, Spontaneous = infants
Rudimentary = infants, toddlers
Fundamental Movement Skill phase = toddlers, preschool, school aged
Specialized Movement Skill Phase = typically begins around 7-10 years of age
![Page 11: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Motor Development is …
1. Continuous & Cumulative
2. Age-related
3. Sequential, yet individual
4. Susceptible to stimulation
5. Plastic
6. Holistic & Integrated
![Page 12: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Continuous and Cumulative
Continuity versus Discontinuity
![Page 13: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Age-Related NOT Age-Determined
Maturation versus Development
![Page 14: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Sequential but Individual
Pattern of development is fairly predictable = Sigmoid Curve
Rate of development is individual
![Page 15: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Positive Stimulation
Movement experiences = chief architect of the brain
Early experiences completely change an individual’s path
![Page 16: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Think about it!
What physical activity-related experiences have you had, that if you had not had, would have caused you to be a very different mover than you are today?
![Page 17: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Individual Structural Weight, height, body proportion, hand/foot size, visual and kinesthetic development
Functional Disposition, mood, experiences, knowledge, attitude
Task Equipment, organization, rules, goal of the task
Environment
Physical Weather, terrain, lighting
Socio-Cultural
Others in the environment and their expectations on the child – parents, teachers, peers, culture

HOW…being a successful facilitator
of purposeful play
![Page 33: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)

Facilitation Roles

![Page 35: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
WHEN Young children are intermittent,
inefficient movers who prefer short intervals of physical activity dispersed throughout the entire day
GOAL – explicitly plan and allocate intervals
throughout the day for movement
![Page 36: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
WHERE Movement can occur anywhere and
much of what young children need is related to developing strength, stability and balance which does not require much space at all.
GOAL – view your space in terms of its movement potential
![Page 37: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
WITH WHAT First and foremost all we need to
participate in movement is our own bodies, but almost anything can be used as a movement tool.
GOAL – view all objects as potential tools for
movement
![Page 38: CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR MEANINGFUL MOVEMENT AND PURPOSEFUL PLAY Kristi Mally, PhD Summer 2012.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649db35503460f94aa2762/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
