What mastery looks like

Not yet

Shows no attempt to when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.)

  • Shows no attempt to when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.)
  • No observable behavior matching this milestone
Emerging

Occasionally or inconsistently when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.)

  • Occasionally or inconsistently when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.)
  • Requires significant support or prompting
Developing

Frequently when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.) with some support

  • Frequently when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.) with some support
  • Shows the behavior in familiar contexts
Secure

Consistently when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.) across contexts

  • Consistently when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.) across contexts
  • Performs independently without prompting
Reflexive

Readily when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.) and extends the behavior

  • Readily when throwing an object with direction, uses their body to propel it (for example, shifts body weight, uses arm to gain momentum, etc.) and extends the behavior
  • Shows flexibility and adaptation in approach
