Jules has demonstrated an adequate level of competence in the fundamental movement skill of overarm throwing but has not demonstrated the ability to catch a ball on the full. In preparing to throw the ball, Jules takes a small step forward with the opposite foot and focuses on the target but does not stand side-on, or follow through with the movement. The target is consistently reached but there is little rotation of the shoulder and hips, and the throws lack power. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade C standard at the end of Stage 2.
