Other Work Samples for:

Dale has demonstrated an adequate level of competence in the fundamental movement skills of kicking and dodging. In kicking, Dale focuses on the ball, places his non-kicking foot correctly and swings his arms in opposition to his feet. His technique would be enhanced by more consistent follow-through of the kick and practice in situations with a defender. In dodging, Dale demonstrates less control and coordination. Dribbling and ball control are adequate but Dale needs to strengthen his balance and footwork in order to change direction more effectively. This work sample demonstrates characteristics of work typically produced by a student performing at grade C standard at the end of Stage 3.
