Activity1: “PICTURE paint a thousand WORDS”
Directions: Cross out the words that show non-locomotor skills.
jumping Bending hopping leaping gliding
running galloping skipping rolling Hip twisting
stretching Pushing Arm swing pulling standing
walking Sliding Arm curling static balancing squatting
Activity 2: “Now It Makes Sense”
Directions: Using the above information you got from the previous activity and your previous
knowledge about locomotor and non-locomotor skills try to connect them all to make sense of
the difference between those skills.
Non-locomotor Skills
Non-locomotor skills include the ability to bend, twist, curl, and sway while using a
variety of bodily joints. Stretching, bending, twisting, and hand clapping are non-
locomotor abilities. They include any movement of the body that does not involve
moving from one location to another. Other instances include turning, tapping the foot,
and winking.
Locomotor Skills
The ability to move one's body in a single direction or several different directions from
one place to another is known as locomotor movement. Fundamental locomotor actions
include walking, jogging, moving forward, backward, sideways, skipping, running,
jumping, hopping, and leaping.
Activity 3: Read, Think and Share
Directions: Read and understand the concepts below. You can raise questions that you want to
clarify where students and teachers must collaborate in this part.
Locomotor Skills
Children that have good locomotor abilities can move their bodies around in a variety of
contexts. The main locomotor abilities include hopping, running, crawling, marching, galloping,
sliding, leaping, and skipping.
How can locomotor activities promote physical fitness?
Increasing stability and developing strong bones, muscles, and hearts. growth of their locomotor
abilities, including as hopping, running, and climbing. improving their capacity for analysis and
problem-solving. the development of manipulative abilities, or fine motor skills like pinching,
gripping, and squeezing.
How do you define cardiorespiratory endurance?
The capacity of the heart, lungs, and blood vessels to provide enough oxygen to the cells to
fulfill the demands of sustained physical exercise is known as cardiorespiratory endurance. It is
the single most crucial element of physical fitness for health. Aerobic activity is crucial for pre
What advantages come with improving cardiorespiratory fitness through physical activity?
Your entire health will benefit from improving your cardiorespiratory endurance. Your heart and
lungs can utilize oxygen more effectively. You may workout longer without feeling fatigued
thanks to this. The majority of people may improve their cardiorespiratory endurance by
exercising often.
Lower all-cause and cardiovascular mortality is correlated with high levels of physical activity
and cardiorespiratory fitness. Additionally, regular exercise helps slow the onset of chronic
conditions including cancer, diabetes, stroke, and hypertension.
Activity 5: Synthesizing Ideas
Guide Questions:
1. Define Cardiorespiratory Fitness?
Cardiorespiratory endurance refers to the ability of the heart, lungs, and blood vessels to
give adequate oxygen to the cells to meet the demands of persistent physical exertion. It
is the most important aspect of physical fitness for health. Aerobic exercise is essential
for prenatal health.
2. What is the relationship between CRF and Locomotor skills? Elaborate on your
answer.
Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) refers to the capacity of the circulatory and respiratory
systems to supply oxygen to skeletal muscle mitochondria for energy production needed
during physical activity.
Locomotor movement refers to the capacity to move one's body in a single direction or
numerous diverse directions from one location to another. Walking, jogging, moving
forward, backward, sideways, skipping, running, jumping, hopping, and leaping are all
basic locomotor motions.
3. Enumerate the benefits of CRF in our health.
Cardiorespiratory fitness improves lung and heart health while also increasing emotions
of well-being. Furthermore, there is emerging evidence that CRF may be a better
predictor of death than other well-established risk factors including smoking,
hypertension, high cholesterol, and type 2 diabetes.
