Abstract


Learning physical education, sports and health requires every student to always move actively. In order for the learning process to run as expected, appropriate learning facilities are needed. Schools must of course be able to support the learning process well, but very few are able to pay attention to achieving these goals, especially in sports lessons. Teachers are required to be more creative by modifying and providing innovative learning facilities. The goal is to attract students' interest and motivation to learn. Before creating interesting learning facilities, teachers must be able to analyze student needs, plan learning methods, and understand student characteristics. This can certainly support the success of a teacher in modifying learning facilities according to student needs. The writing of this article uses a literature study, which is then a technique used to collect data through several sources such as journals, articles, theses, books, and several other references. The purpose of this study is to determine the importance of basic movement skills and learning facilities to support the development of elementary school children's motor skills.
