Gross motor/phisical skills involve movements of the large muscles of the arms, legs, and torso.
They include eye-hand coordination skills such as ball skills (throwing, catching, kicking) as well as riding a bike or a scooter and swimming.
For everyday activities (such as standing and walking, running and jumping, and sitting upright at the table) at school, at home and in the community kids rely on gross motor skills.
Struggling with gross motor skills causes trouble doing whole-body movements. Gross motor skills are related to other abilities.
These include:
- Balance
