K-5 Motor Skills Assessment
Assess young students on what they can do, not just a number.
Fitness numbers barely move in elementary school, but skills do. Rate each student on locomotor, manipulative, and balance and stability skills at four levels — Emerging, Developing, Proficient, and Advanced — for the skills their grade band is actually expected to learn. The ratings roll into a class progress view and straight into that student’s standards picture.
Built for the little ones
The skills and the levels fit a five-year-old, not a varsity athlete.
Four clear levels
A teacher, an aide, and a substitute all judge a skill the same way.

What you get
- Skill areas for locomotor, manipulative, and balance and stability
- Four rating levels: Emerging, Developing, Proficient, and Advanced
- Only the skills a grade band is expected to learn are offered
- Rate a class against one skill at a time, on a tablet in the gym
- A progress view showing where the class sits across every skill
- Ratings feed Standards Progress, so nothing is assessed twice
- Works as the measure behind a skills-based SLO
