Although they are still hitting the target, the score of some students practicing archery has decreased as the distance between them and the target has increased. Which of the following adjustments will improve their scores?

• Increasing the velocity of their arrows.

• Increasing the student's base of support.

• Increasing the wight of the arrows.

• Increasing the parabolic path of the arrow.

Some students practicing basketball are having difficulty with "free throws" even though the shots make it to and over the hoop. What adjustment will improve their "free throws?"

• Increasing the height of release (i.e. jump shot).

• Increasing the vertical path of the ball.

• Increasing the velocity of the release.

• Increasing the base of support.

An instructor used a similar movement from a skill learned in a different activity to teach a skill for a new activity. The technique used to facilitate cognitive learning was:

• Conceptual thinking

• Transfer of learning

• Longer instruction

• Appropriate language

To enhance skill and strategy performance for striking or throwing objects, for catching or collecting objects, and for carrying and propelling objects, students must first learn techniques for:

• Offense

• Defense

• Controlling objects

• Continuous play of objects

Using tactile clues is a functional adaptation that can assist which type of students?

• Deaf students

• Blind students

• Asthmatic students

• Physically challenged students

What is the proper order of sequential development for the acquisition of locomotor skills?

• Creep, crawl, walk, jump, run, slide, gallop, hop, leap, skip; step-hop.

• Crawl, walk, creep, slide, walk, run, hop, leap, gallop, skip; step-hop.

• Creep, crawl, walk, slide, run, hop, leap, skip, gallop, jump; step-hop

• Crawl, creep, walk, run, jump, hop, gallop, slide, leap, skip; step-hop.

LEAP: An exaggerated running step. There is a transfer of weight from one foot to the other and a phase when neither foot is in contact with the ground.

SKIP: A locomotor skill that combines a hop and a step(walk or run). The rhythm an uneven.

Having students pretend they are playing basketball or trying to catch a bus develops which locomotor skills?

• Galloping

• Running

• Leaping

• Skipping

Having students play Fox and Hound develops:

• Galloping

• Hopping

• Stepping-hopping

• Skipping

Having students take off and land with both feet together develops which locomotor skill?

• Hopping

• Jumping

• Leaping

• Skipping

What is the proper sequential order of development for the acquisition of nonlocomotor skills?

• Stretch, sit, bend, turn, swing, twist, shake, rock & sway, dodge; fall.

• Bend, stretch, turn, twist, swing, sit, rock & say, shake, dodge; fall.

• Stretch, bend, sit, shake, turn, rock& sway, swing, twist, dodge, fall.

• Bend, stretch, sit, turn, twist, swing, sway, rock & sway, dodge; fall,
