The purpose of this study was to examine the acquisition of skills to kick and stop balls using Floor-Kick-Ball in a 2
nd grade physical education class, and contributions of connect to middle grades. Floor-Kick-Ball is a kind of teaching material that separates children into offense and defense, and has them kick the ball with their feet. The participants were 21 children who participated in an 8-hour PE ball games unit. The main game for every class was Floor-Kick-Ball. The children's performance in the main games was videotaped and analyzed using criteria based on observational evaluation: success rate, quality, and contact surface for each pass, shot, and trap.
The main findings were as follows.
1) In passing skills, the success rate was more than 90% throughout the unit.
2) In shooting skills, it became possible for the participants to kick while aiming at a space without defenders and the corner of the court (
χ2=28.970, p <.001).
3) In trapping skills, both pass stopping and shot stopping, it became possible for the participants to trap the ball in such a position so that the next play was easy to complete with one touch (
χ2=47.581, <.001:
χ2=36.494, <.001).
4) With instruction, it was possible for the participants to control the ball with the inside of their feet.
These results suggest that skills to kick and stop balls were acquired through floor kickball, a game that separates participants into offense and defense and has them kick the ball with their feet. Moreover, this material could connect to middle grades due to acquisition of correct on the ball skills and the pass to the forward space.
