An Empirical Study of Preschool Children’s Physical Games from the Perspective of Gross Motor Development

Abstract

In recent years, the country has attached more importance to children's physical education, and relevant policy documents also emphasize the importance of children's physical activities. Children are the key period for the development of gross movements. The development of gross movements not only affects the physical quality of children, but also is closely related to their cognitive, emotional and social development. Research points out that 3-6 years old is the critical period for young children to develop gross movements. Different in age, so the focus of children's development of rough movements is not the same, in which children 5-6 years old is the fastest development of children's gross movements, mainly to develop the development of running, jumping and balance ability. At this stage, targeted intervention for children will produce good results. This paper uses literature research, testing, experiment,and mathematical statistics. Among them, the present paper mainly adopts the experimental method. In this paper, children aged 5-6 years old in Chengdu Aidi Kindergarten were selected as the experiment object, among which 20 children (10 from each male and female) were randomly selected as the experimental group. After 8 weeks of experimental intervention in the experimental group, the following conclusions were drawn. After 8 weeks of sports game experiment in the experimental group, the children's gross movement skills were improved to different degrees.The research results are as follows: 1. Children's "running", "standing long jump" and "side slip" are less improved after intervention, and need intervention and attention in the future gross movement training.2. Children have less improvement after the intervention of "overhand throw" and "one-handed racket" in the operational skills, and should be intervened and paid attention to in the future rough movement training.3. Compared with traditional physical education teaching activities, sports game activity teaching can better improve children's interest in participating in sports activities. The sports games in this study have played this effect, compared with the previous teaching, greatly improved the enthusiasm of children, and achieved the ideal effect. Therefore, professional sports games can make children better improve the development of gross movement skills in the happy activities, and improve their personal physical quality.
