Physical Literacy Across the Lifespan and Sectors
• Leisure: Recreation & Sport – Fundamental Movement Skills – General Movement
Sequences, Performance Excellence & Participation• Performance Arts
– Circus, dance • Vocational
• Firefighter, Armed Services, Dry Waller, Iron Worker, Underwater Welder, any vocation with physicality
• Activities of Daily Living • Garden, paint, hammer, walk on slippery surfaces, etc.
• Injury Prevention• Lift, carry, transfer, lower – back injury – WCB • Falls, stumble recovery, landing – fracture• ACL female to male ratio is 6:1, physical literacy related

Physical Literacy Assessment
PLAY Tools• Play FUN – objective assessment of motor competence, confidence,
comprehension of skills and tasks (sequences) 18 skills/tasks
• Play Basic – 5 skills from PLAY FUN
1) Run There and Back 4) Ball Kick
2) Hop 5) Walk backwards Heel to Toe
3) Overhand Throw
• PLAY Coach - coach/teacher/instructor/etc. assessment of a child
• PLAY Parent - parental assessment of a child
• PLAY Self - child’s self assessment (< Grade 7, 8+)
• PLAY Inventory - inventory of activities - participationEach Tool has:• Workbook• Form• Scoresheet
• Tracking Sheet• Calls-to-action• Website Section
PLAY Fun/Basic
• Has a competence section – comprised of the Visual Analogue Scale divided into 4 quadrants
• The first two quadrants represent the skill developing (initial and emerging)
• The second two quadrants represent the skill acquired (competent and proficient) working towards mastery
• There is a also a confidence section - confidence is either low or not• And a comprehension section - how much explanation do they need to
perform the task
Current Delivery
Ontario
• My Personal Best Program - Ministry supported Ontario After
School
• After school leaders deliver PLAY Fun and PLAY Self
• Began January, 2014 and involves over 400 sites/20,000 children
& youth
• PLAYTools used to measure effectiveness of program delivery
• Early results have indicated an increase in PL skills in children
and youth from January to May 2014
• Some after school leaders have reported a substantial increase in
their own physical literacy knowledge

Creating a Quality Physical Literacy Experience
• A quality physical literacy experience (QPLE) can be created in various settings– Recreation, Sport, School, After School
• There are many outcomes that a QPLE can support • Important practitioners understand
these outcomes in designing
programs or lesson plans • A snapshot of some of the
key elements in a QPLE follows…
Creating a Quality Physical Literacy Experience
• A QPLE is more than just teaching movement FORM (FMS)
• Must address diverse movement • Sequence movement skills together• Teach the terminology• How to modify• Social Cohesion – small group or
2 people vs large-sided
QPLE Elements
• Mimicry – Children are excellent mimics - to maximize this ability have someone that can execute the movement slowly and have the others follow along – like line dancing
• Equipment - Many fundamental movement skills can be acquired without sport specific equipment
• Throw and catch practice stations
can be created with any type of
ball or bean bags.
Some Components of QPLE
• “Form” or “technique” in movement execution is important – they also need to understand the words
• Children are very good mimics and they often do not understand the words that describe movement
• Children need to know what the difference is in terms such as hop, jump, leap etc.
• Use methods to assure they comprehend movement terminology
• It is very difficult to participate
in activity without knowing
movement terminology
