The main criterion for assessing flexibility is the greatest range of motion that can be achieved by the subject. Range of movements measured in angular degrees or in linear measures (in centimeters), using equipment and pedagogical tests.
Hardware measurement methods are: 1) mechanical (using a goniometer); 2)mechanoelectric (using an electrogoniometer - graphical representation of articular angles); 3) optical (using photo, film, video equipment); 4) radiographic.
In physical education and sports, the most accessible and common ways to measure flexibility are in linear measures and using a goniometer (in angular degrees). The main pedagogical tests for assessing joint mobility are the simplest control exercises.
1. Mobility in the shoulder joint.
1.1. The subject, holding the ends of a gymnastic stick (rope), twists his straight arms backwards. Mobility in the shoulder joint is assessed by the distance between the hands when twisted: the smaller the distance, the higher the mobility in this joint. In addition, the shortest distance between the hands is compared with the width of the subject’s shoulder girdle (grip length/shoulder width).
2. Mobility of the spinal column.
2.1. Determined by the degree of forward tilt of the body. The subject, standing on a bench (or sitting on the floor), leans forward to the limit without bending his knees. The flexibility of the spine is assessed using a ruler, which is determined by the distance in centimeters from the zero mark to the third finger of the hand. If the fingers do not reach the zero mark, then the measured distance is indicated with a minus sign (-), and if they fall below the zero mark, with a plus sign (+).
2.2. "Bridge". The result (in centimeters) is measured from the heels to the toes of the subject. The shorter the distance, the higher the level of flexibility and vice versa.
3. Mobility in the hip joint.
3.1. The subject must spread his legs as wide as possible (“splits”): 1) back and forth; 2) to the sides with support on your hands. The level of mobility in a given joint is assessed by the distance from the floor to the pelvis (tailbone); the shorter the distance, the higher the level of flexibility
3.2. Using a goniometer – abduction of the straight leg forward, to the side, back.
4. Mobility in the ankle joints.
4.1. In a sitting position - plantar flexion of the foot or deviation from the vertical of the foot towards the shin (towards oneself). Mobility in a given joint is measured in centimeters.
When selecting control exercises used to assess mobility in joints, it is necessary to ensure that their structure is close to the competitive exercise in the chosen sport and determines mobility in the muscle-articular groups that bear the main load in this sport.

Monitoring the physical fitness of preschool children
Monitoring the physical fitness of preschool children
Modern living conditions place increased demands on the condition physical and mental state children starting from the earliest age, and only healthy children can meet these requirements.
In this regard, the problem of early formation of a health culture is relevant, timely and quite complex. It is known that preschool and primary school age are decisive in the formation of the foundation physical and mental health. It is up to the age of 7 that a person goes through a huge developmental path that is not repeated throughout his subsequent life. During this period, the organs and systems of the body undergo intensive development, the main personality traits are laid, character and attitude towards oneself and others are formed. It is important at this stage to form children knowledge base and practical skills of a healthy lifestyle, a realized need for systematic exercise physical culture and sports.
The period of childhood is the most important in the development of a child’s motor functions, especially his physical qualities. The child masters all voluntary movements, including the basic ones (walking, running, throwing, jumping, climbing) gradually, under the influence of a number of factors. One of these factors is child's physical fitness, which is determined by the degree of formed motor skills and the level of development of basic physical qualities and general coordination abilities.
Therefore, a control system is needed physical development, physical fitness and the child’s performance. In progress physical education should create conditions in which physical child's capabilities - preschooler will open completely. This can be facilitated by an individual approach to children, ensuring an appropriate level of physical development - health status, levels physical fitness and motor activity.
Physical fitness checked according to 6 main tests: speed (short-distance running, speed-strength (jumping, throwing), endurance (running, coordination (shuttle running, flexibility (bending, strength) (lifting the body). After the examination, the indicators of each child are analyzed and compared with normative data.
1. Speed test qualities:
Speed is the ability to perform motor actions in the shortest possible time. Speed is determined by the speed of reaction to a signal and the frequency of repeated actions.
Target: Determine speed qualities in the 30 m run from a high start.
Location: Sports ground of a children's institution. The examination is carried out directly (width - 1.5 - 2 m, length - 40 m) markings: transverse stripe of the start line, finish line, side markings.
Methodology: At least two people participate in the race. At the command “Start!” participants approach the starting line and take their starting position. At the command “Attention!” lean forward and at the command “March!” run to the finish line along their own path. The result is recorded. Pairs are formed in approximately the same way physical development

2. Test for determining coordination abilities:
Coordination of movements shows the possibility of control, conscious control over the motor pattern and one’s movement.
Target: Determine the ability to quickly and accurately adjust your actions in accordance with the requirements of a suddenly changing situation in the 3*10 m shuttle run.
Location: Sports ground of the preschool educational institution. The examination is carried out directly (width - 1.5 - 2 m, length - 20 m) well-compacted or asphalt path with visible markings: transverse stripe of the start line, finish line, side markings. 5 m before the start line and 5 m after the finish line.
Methodology: One or two participants can take part in the race. Before the start of the race, a cube is placed at the start and finish line in the middle of each lane. At the command “Start!” participants go to the starting line. At the command “March!” run to the finish line, running around twice (cube at finish and start). The total running time is recorded. The person passing the norm takes the high start position. By command "March" The stopwatch starts, the dealer runs to the other end of the segment, runs around the cube, returns, and also on the other side of the 10-meter segment. When crossing the finish line, the stopwatch stops.

3. Determination test endurance:
Endurance is the ability to withstand fatigue and any activity. Endurance is determined by the functional stability of the nerve centers, coordination of the functions of the motor apparatus and internal organs.
Target: Determine endurance in continuous running until fatigue preschool children.
Methodology: Running can be done both in the gym and in the stadium. The race is carried out in a circle, in a snake, in pairs, in a column, with 6-8 people at a time. Mark the distance in advance - the starting line. Instructor physical The teacher runs in front of the column at an average pace for 1-2 laps, the children run after him, then the children run on their own, trying not to change the pace. Running continues until the first signs of fatigue appear. The test is considered correctly completed if the child runs the entire distance without stopping. Two are recorded on the individual card indicator: the duration of the run and the length of the distance that the child ran. Juniors preschoolers from 10,0-15.0 sec., middle and senior group up to 35.0 – 40.0 sec. AND preparatory up to 60.0 sec. Repeat 2 – 4 times with breaks
Minimum distance - 5 years - 90 m (30.6-25.5, 6 years - 120 m (35,7 – 29,2) and 7 years – 150 m (41,2- 33,6)
4. Test for determining speed and strength qualities:
Speed-strength abilities are a combination of strength and speed abilities. They are based on the functional properties of the muscular and other systems, which make it possible to perform actions in which, along with significant mechanical force, significant speed of movement is also required.
The speed and strength qualities of the muscles of the lower extremities are determined by standing long jump.
Target: Determine speed and strength qualities in a standing long jump.
Methodology: The jump is performed on loose ground. Before testing begins, the manager physical education explains the task, shows the children how they should prepare for the jump. The length of the jump is measured with an accuracy of 1 cm. Two or three attempts are given, and the best result is recorded in the protocol. The child stands at the starting line, pushes off with both legs, makes an intense swing of his arms, and jumps the maximum distance into the jumping hole or onto the mat. When landing, do not lean on your back with your hands. The distance is measured from the line to the heel of the back standing leg. The best result is recorded.

1. Standing overhead throw. From the control line, legs apart, the medicine ball is taken behind the head, the throw is carried out with both hands from behind the head.
2. I. p. sitting with his back to the marking line. The back is straight, legs are spread to the sides, the ball is held with both hands in front of you. The throw is performed with both hands behind the head (back)
3. The child takes 2 balls in turn and throws. The best result is taken into account
5. Determination test flexibility:
Flexibility is the morphofunctional properties of the musculoskeletal system, which determine the degree of mobility of its parts. Flexibility characterizes the elasticity of muscles and ligaments.
Target: Determine flexibility while standing on a gymnastic bench preschool children and from a standing position on the floor school age children.
Methodology: Bend forward from a standing position on the gymnastics bench: The child stands on a gymnastic bench (the surface of the bench corresponds to the zero mark). Bend down, trying not to bend your knees. Using a ruler installed perpendicular to the bench, write down the level to which the child reached with his fingertips. If the child does not reach the zero mark (the surface of the bench), then the result is counted with a minus sign. When performing this test, you can use the “get a toy” game moment.
Bend forward from a sitting position semi: A line A - B is drawn on the floor with chalk, and from its middle - a perpendicular line, which is marked every 1 cm. The child sits down so that his heels are on the A-B line. The distance between the heels is 20-30cm, the feet are vertical. Three warm-up inclines are performed, and then the fourth, test. The result is determined by touching the digital mark with the fingertips of joined hands.

6. Strength test abilities:
Strength is the ability to overcome external resistance and resist it through muscle effort.
Target: raising the body from a sitting position with bent knees for 30 seconds per number of times. Throwing bags children(150-200g.) throwing a bag with the right (left) hand using the “from behind the back over the shoulder” method. Stand behind the control line and throw the sandbag as far as possible. The best throw out of three attempts is counted
Method of lifting the body. Raising the body from a supine position is performed from the starting position (IP):
lying on your back on a gymnastics mat, hands behind your head, fingers clasped in "lock", shoulder blades touch the mat, legs are bent at the knees at a right angle, feet are pressed by the partner to the floor.
The participant performs the maximum number of body lifts in 30 seconds, touching the hips (knees) with the elbows, followed by returning to the IP.
The number of correctly performed body lifts is counted.

result
boys - 3-5 12-20 22-35 35-42
girls - 5-8 15-28 30-40 45-60
When conducting physical diagnostics requires a standard set of sports equipment:
Jumping pit to identify speed and strength qualities;
Crossbar and bags of sand 150-200g. to identify strength qualities;
Gymnastic bench and ruler to test flexibility;
Treadmill and stopwatch to test endurance and speed.
When testing children certain rules must be followed. Conduct research in the first half of the day, in a gym, a well-ventilated area or on a playground. Cloth lightweight for children. On the day of testing, daily routine children should not be overloaded physically and emotionally. Before testing, you should carry out a standard warm-up of all body systems in accordance with the specifics of the tests. It is necessary to ensure a calm environment, avoid negative emotions in the child, observe an individual approach, take into account age characteristics.
Testing form physical qualities of children should include their desire to show the best result: Children can make 2-3 attempts. The time between attempts of the same test should be sufficient to eliminate the fatigue that occurs after the first attempt.
The order of the test remains constant and does not change under any circumstances. As a rule, testing is carried out by a physical education instructor, a teacher, a senior teacher and a nurse.
Testing should be carried out in the fall and spring under standard, identical conditions, which will reduce the possibility of error in the results and will allow us to obtain more objective information for the period under study.

If you haven’t exercised for a long time, but then decided to fill this gap, you need to check the flexibility of your body. This way you can choose a load that is feasible at the moment and avoid injuries and sprains. After all, it is not enough to just be slim; it is important that your muscles are also in proper shape. This will keep your joints in good shape for a long time and allow you to lead a more active lifestyle. However, like all physical activities, such flexibility measurements must be done correctly, let’s figure out how.
Hip and shoulder flexibility tests
Good stretching and plastic surgery is an excellent prevention of osteochondrosis and radiculitis. It will be especially useful for those who lead a sedentary lifestyle and spend a lot of time at the computer.
- Flexibility of the shoulder joints. For this you will need an assistant. You need to: sit with your back to your partner, put your hands behind your head and clasp them in a lock. Tell your partner, with his knee against your back, to pull your elbows back. If you feel any discomfort, stop. What did you do? It’s good if your elbows pass the line of your shoulders, great if they form a right angle behind your back.
- There is another way to check your shoulder joints. Lie down on a bench (preferably in the gym) with your shoulders hanging slightly. Raise your arms and lower them straight behind your head.
If 2 palms “went” below the bench - good, if 2 elbows went down there - great, but if you reached the floor, just great and your stretching can be envied.
- You can also “measure” the flexibility of the hip joints and muscle stretching on the bench. Lie down on a bench with your legs dangling. Pull one leg towards your chest and press firmly with your hands. In this case, the position of the body on the bench should be level. All main points are pressed to its surface. Now try to lower your other leg down. It should be as straight as possible.
If the leg only reached the level of the bench - good, fell below its level - great, reached the floor - an excellent stretch. The same must be done for the other leg.
- Another hip flexibility test. Sit on a bench or mat. Stretch your legs. The back should be perfectly straight, and the legs too. Start leaning towards your leg, you don’t need to pull the toe, leave it in a position that is comfortable for you.
If you reached your heel with your fingers, good; if you were able to grab your foot, great. If at the same time you managed to lie on your leg, this is an excellent result. Do the same in the other direction.
- Take a stick so long that when you grab it, your hands are wider than your shoulders. Raise them above your head and move them a little further back than your shoulder line. Retract your shoulder blades as much as possible until there is slight discomfort. Fix your hands and try not to move them. Start doing a squat.
If you have an incomplete squat, and the stick does not budge, unpleasant sensations appear in the hip joint - a good result. If you get a full squat and there is discomfort in the lumbar region, great. If you do not experience any discomfort during a full squat, your preparation is beyond praise.
Ankle flexibility test
To test the capabilities of the lower leg and hamstrings you need to:
- Get into a push-up position;
- Place your palms and toes on the floor;
- Start moving your arms and legs towards each other;
If your toes and palms meet with straight legs, the result is excellent; if you could not do this, then you need to work on these zones.
Gluteal stretch test
If your gluteal muscles are not stretched enough, then during exercise you will unnecessarily strain your back muscles, which can lead to discomfort in this area, the site warns . So;
- Sitting on the floor, spread your legs with your knees bent;
- Start leaning towards one leg and lower the other knee to the floor, do not bring your legs together;
- Your hands should be on the outside of the leg you are leaning towards;
- Now lower your body as far as possible;
If you were unable to touch the floor with your knee or were unable to bend your body deeply enough, you need to work the gluteal muscle area.
The main criterion for assessing flexibility is the greatest range of motion that can be achieved by the subject. The amplitude of movements is measured in angular degrees or in linear measures, using equipment or pedagogical tests.
Hardware measurement methods are:
1) mechanical (using a goniometer);
2) mechanoelectric (using an electrogoniometer);
3) optical;
4) radiographic.
For particularly accurate measurements of joint mobility, electrogoniometric, optical and radiographic methods are used. Electrogoniometers allow you to obtain a graphic image of flexibility and monitor changes in joint angles in various phases of movement. Optical methods for assessing flexibility are based on the use of photo, film and video equipment. The radiographic method makes it possible to determine the theoretically permissible range of motion, which is calculated on the basis of an X-ray analysis of the structure of the joint. In physical education, the most accessible and widespread method of measuring flexibility is using a mechanical goniometer - a goniometer, to one of the legs of which a protractor is attached. The legs of the goniometer are attached to the longitudinal axes of the segments that make up a particular joint. When performing flexion, extension or rotation, determine the angle between the axes of the joint segments .
The main pedagogical tests for assessing the mobility of various joints are the simplest control exercises:
1. Mobility in the shoulder joint. The subject, holding the ends of a gymnastic stick (rope), twists his straight arms backwards (Fig. 1, 1).
The mobility of the shoulder joint is assessed by the distance between the hands when twisting: the smaller the distance, the higher the flexibility of this joint, and vice versa (Fig. 1, 2).
Besides,
the smallest distance between the hands is compared with the width of the subject’s shoulder girdle. Active abduction of straight arms upward from a position lying on the chest, arms forward. The greatest distance from the floor to the fingertips is measured (Fig. 1, 5).
2. Mobility of the spinal column. Determined by the degree of forward tilt of the body (Fig. 1, 3, 4, b). The subject, standing on a bench (or sitting on the floor), leans forward to the limit without bending his knees. The flexibility of the spine is assessed using a ruler or tape based on the distance in centimeters from the zero mark to the third finger of the hand. If the fingers do not reach the zero mark, then the measured distance is indicated by a minus sign (—), and if they fall below the zero mark, by a plus sign (+).
"Bridge" (Fig. 1, 7). The result (in cm) is measured from the heels to the fingertips of the subject. The shorter the distance, the higher the level of flexibility, and vice versa.
3. Mobility in the hip joint. The subject strives to spread his legs as wide as possible: 1) to the sides and 2) back and forth, leaning on his hands (Fig. 1, 8). The level of mobility in a given joint is assessed by the distance from the floor to the pelvis (tailbone): the shorter the distance, the higher the level of flexibility, and vice versa.
4. Mobility in the knee joints. The subject performs a squat with his arms extended forward or his arms behind his head (Fig. 1, 10, 11). High mobility in these joints is evidenced by a full squat.
5. Mobility in the ankle joints(Fig. 15, 12, UD). Various parameters of movements in the joints should be measured based on compliance with standard testing conditions: 1) the same initial positions of the body links; 2) the same (standard) warm-up; 3) repeat flexibility measurements to be carried out at the same time, since these conditions one way or another affect mobility in the joints.
Rice. 1. Control exercises (tests) to assess the level of flexibility development
Passive flexibility is determined by the greatest amplitude that can be achieved due to external influences. It is determined by the greatest amplitude that can be achieved due to an external force, the magnitude of which must be the same for all measurements, otherwise it is impossible to obtain an objective assessment of passive flexibility. The measurement of passive flexibility is suspended when the external force causes pain.
An informative indicator of the state of the joint and muscular system of the subject (in centimeters or angular degrees) is the difference between the values of active and passive flexibility. This difference is called active flexibility deficit.
Diagnostics of physical fitness of preschool children of kindergarten No. 232 of JSC Russian Railways"
Target: examination of the physical condition of both an individual child and the group as a whole in a preschool educational institution.
Tasks:
- Identify the level of physical development, physical fitness and performance of children.
- Implement an individually differentiated approach to the physical education of children.
- Organize data recording and information collection.
Relevance.
Physical education occupies a special place in the general system of educational work of MDOU. It is in preschool childhood that, as a result of targeted pedagogical influence, the child’s health is strengthened, the physiological functions of the body are trained, movements, motor skills and physical qualities necessary for the comprehensive harmonious development of the individual are intensively developed.
One of the most important areas of activity of the senior teacher is pedagogical control over the implementation of the physical education program based on the analysis of the results of diagnostics of the physical condition of pupils.
Novelty.
A set of test exercises and reporting documentation forms are proposed that allow for mass examination of children within a certain time frame.
The proposed system of measures for collecting, processing, analyzing information, assessing and forecasting the state of health and physical development of children makes it possible to monitor the results and timely predict further work.
The problem arises of obtaining high-quality information about the level of development of pupils in a preschool educational institution in all sections of the program and in particular on physical development. This is due to the fact that new generation programs do not offer criteria for assessing the quality of education and do not provide tests to determine the level of development of a preschooler. This is the case with the comprehensive educational program “Childhood”, according to which our preschool institution operates.
The program for the section “Raising children healthy, strong, cheerful” gives a description of the age characteristics of pupils, levels in mastering the content of program tasks
(high, medium, low), minimum results are proposed, but there are no test tasks, so there was a need to systematize the work in this direction.
We have developed a program for physical examination of preschool children, which consists of diagnostic tests with a description of the methodology.
Diagnosis of physical development allows:
- obtain an objective assessment of the level of physical development and physical fitness of children;
- draw up a plan for physical education and health work with preschoolers and adjust it;
- implement an individually differentiated approach to the physical education of children.
During testing, it is important to consider:
- individual capabilities of the child;
- features of testing, which should reveal even the most minor deviations in the motor development of the child.
Before performing control motor tasks, you should do a short warm-up (calm walking, turning into running, continuous running for 1.5 minutes, breathing exercises).
It is better to conduct tests in a playful way so that children enjoy the activities so that they can feel the “muscular joy” of physical activity.
Tests for children of the 2nd junior group.
Testing for this age group is carried out in one lesson. Considering the increasingly complex nature of the exercises, you should approach the organization of the preparatory part more carefully. It is necessary to include exercises in walking on toes, heels, in a half-squat, and on a rope.
It is necessary to provide a number of jumping exercises: jumping from a bench, jumping from circle to circle, lying at an accessible distance. It is advisable to include exercises for climbing and throwing balls, running exercises, and games.
Test 1
Target: determine coordination abilities.
The child must walk along a line 3 m long and 15 cm wide. The test is considered completed if the child, holding his head, walks along this line without touching the restrictions.
Test 2
Target: determine the endurance of children, the ability to run without stopping, the frequency of coordination abilities.
Children should run slowly, continuously for one minute. The exercise is performed together with an adult, who runs in front and sets a pace that is feasible for the children.
Test 3
Target: determine strength and coordination abilities.
Children must climb up and down the gymnastics wall to a height of 1.5 m.
Children perform the exercise independently, but with backup. There should be mats at the base of the wall.
Test 4
Target: Determine the accuracy of movements.
Children must pass a rubber ball with a diameter of 15-20 cm to each other and catch it. The distance between children is 1.5 m. The test is considered completed if the child catches the ball 2 times out of 3 times.
Test 5
Target: Determine the strength of the leg muscles, the ability to jump, pushing off with both legs.
The child must jump and touch with his outstretched hand an object raised to a height of 15 cm from the outstretched hand. The test is considered completed if the child takes out the object twice out of three attempts.
Test 6
Target: determine coordination abilities, volitional manifestations.
The child must jump from a pedestal (bench) 20 cm high into a circle with a diameter of 80 cm. The test is considered completed if the child, pushing off with both feet, lands on both without touching the border of the circle.
Assessment of test results for children of the 2nd junior group.
5 points – all test elements are performed in full accordance with the model presented in this work.
4 points – one error was made during the test, which does not significantly affect the final result.
3 points – the test was carried out with great difficulty, there are significant errors, deviations from the specified model.
2 points – the test is practically not completed, but the child makes attempts, where 1-2 elements that are not of significant importance are still completed.
1 point – the child does not attempt to complete the test and is physically unable to complete any element of the test.
Input diagnostics of physical fitness of children of the 2nd junior group
Tests to determine speed qualities.
Speed – the ability to perform motor actions in a minimum period of time, which is determined by the speed of reaction to a signal and the frequency of repeated actions.

Target: determine the child’s speed qualities and his reaction in the 10 m run.
Methodology: The start and finish lines are marked on the asphalt path. A landmark (a bright object - a pin, a cube) is placed behind the finish line (6 - 7 m from it) so that the child does not make an abrupt stop when crossing the finish line. Two attempts are offered, with a 5-minute rest between them.
The child, on the command “to start,” approaches the line and takes a comfortable position. The teacher stands on the side of the starting line with a stopwatch. After waving the flag, the child takes a running start. At the moment of crossing the start line, the teacher turns on the stopwatch and turns it off when the child reaches the finish line.
The best result of two attempts is recorded.
Test No. 2. 30 m run from a high start
Target: determine speed qualities in the 30 m run from a high start.
Methodology: The task is carried out on a treadmill (at least 40 m long, 3 m wide). The start line and finish line are marked on the track. Testing is carried out by two adults; one is with a flag on the line
start, the second (with a stopwatch) - at the finish line. A bright landmark is placed behind the finish line at a distance of 5 -7 m. At the teacher’s command “attention,” the child approaches the starting line and takes the starting position. Then comes the command “march” - waving the flag (it must
given at the baby's side). At this time, the teacher standing on the line
finish, starts the stopwatch. During a short rest (3 - 5 minutes)
Calm walking with breathing exercises is carried out.
Two attempts are offered and the best result is recorded. Attention! While running, you should not rush your child or correct his running.
Tests to determine speed and strength qualities
Force - This is the ability to overcome external resistance and counteract it through the muscular system.
Test No. 3. Standing long jump
Target: determine speed-strength qualities in the standing long jump.
Methodology: The examination of standing long jumps can be carried out in the kindergarten area in the warm season, and indoors in the cold season. The jump is performed into a sand-filled jumping pit or onto loose soil (1x2 meters in area). In unfavorable weather conditions, jumping can be carried out in the gym; a physical training track can be used for this.
The child is asked to push off with both legs, with an intense swing of his arms, from the marked take-off line to the maximum distance for him and land on both legs. When landing, do not lean behind with your hands. The distance between the take-off line and the footprint (along the heels) upon landing is measured (in cm). 3 attempts are made. The best attempt is counted.
The test is intended for children from 3 to 7 years old.
Test No. 4. Throwing a medicine ball weighing 0.5 kg. In the distance with both hands with a swing from behind the head from the I.P. standing
Target: determination of strength and coordination.
Methodology: The test is carried out on a flat area at least 10 m long. The child stands at the control marking line and throws the ball from behind the head with both hands forward from the starting position standing, one leg in front, the other behind, or legs apart. When throwing, your feet must remain in contact with the ground. Movement following the thrown is allowed. 3 attempts are made. The best result is counted.
The test is intended for children from 3 to 7 years old.
Test No. 5. Throwing a bag of sand into the distance
Target: determination of dexterity and coordination.
Methodology: The throwing range survey is carried out on an asphalt track or physical training ground. The throwing corridor must be at least 3 meters wide and 15 - 20 meters long. The path is preliminarily marked with chalk with transverse lines every meter and the distance is numbered with numbers. The take-off line, 40 cm wide, is shaded with chalk. On command, the child approaches the take-off line, from the position. standing, throws the bag (200 gr.), with one hand from behind the head, one leg is placed in front of the other at a step distance. When throwing, you cannot change the position of your feet. The best result out of three attempts is counted.
The test is intended for children from 3 to 7 years old
.Endurance tests.
Endurance - is the ability to withstand fatigue And any activity. It is determined by the functionalstability of nerve centers, coordination of the functions of the motor apparatus and internal organs.
Test No. 6. Raising the body from a lying position.
Target: determine endurance during lifting.
Methodology: The child lies on a gymnastics mat on his back with his arms crossed over his chest. At the “start” command, the child rises without bending his knees (the teacher slightly holds the child’s knees while sitting on the mat next to him), sits down and lies down again. The teacher counts the number of lifts. The test is considered correctly performed if the child did not touch the mat with his elbows when rising, and his back and knees remained straight.
Out of two attempts, the best result is counted.
The test is intended for children from 4 to 7 years old.
Test No. 7. Running at a moderate (slow) pace.
Target: determination of general endurance in running at distances of 9, 120, 150.
Methodology: The test is carried out with a small subgroup (5 - 7 people), formed taking into account the level of motor activity of children. There are two teachers and a nurse who monitors the well-being of the children.
The teacher needs to measure the distance of the treadmill in advance (in meters) and mark it - mark the start line and half the distance. The path can run around the preschool. Children approach the starting line. The group teacher gives the command “to start” and starts the stopwatch. The physical education teacher runs in front of the column at an average pace for 1-2 laps, the children run after him, then the children run on their own, trying not to change the pace. Running continues until the first signs of fatigue appear. The test is considered correctly completed if the child runs the entire distance without stopping.
The test is intended for children: 5 years - distance 90 m;
6 years - distance 120 m;
7 years - distance 150 m.
Flexibility test.
Flexibility – morphofunctional properties of the musculoskeletalapparatus, determining the degree of mobility of its links. Flexibility characterizes the elasticity of muscles and ligaments.
Test No. 8. Bend the torso forward from a standing position.
Target: definition of flexibility.
Methodology: The test is carried out by two teachers. The child stands on a gymnastic bench (the surface of the bench corresponds to the zero mark). Assignment: bend down, trying not to bend your knees (if necessary, one of the teachers can hold them). The second teacher, using a ruler installed perpendicular to the bench, records the level to which the child reached with his fingertips. If the child does not reach the zero mark (bench surface), then the result is counted with a minus sign. While performing this test, you can use the “get the toy” game moment.
The test is intended for children from 3 to 7 years old.
Agility Test
Agility – This is the ability to quickly master new movements (the ability to learn quickly), quickly and accurately adjust your actions in accordance with the requirements of a suddenly changing environment.
Test No. 9.
Target: determine agility in zigzag running.
Methodology: The test is carried out on a sports ground or in a hall at least 15 m long. A starting line is outlined, which is also the finish line. From the “start” line, 2 large balls are placed at a distance of 5 m, from them at a distance of 3 m, 2 more large balls parallel to the first and 2 more balls at the same distance. Thus, the distance is divided into 3 zones. The distance between the balls is 2 m. It is necessary to indicate the direction of movement with arrows.
At the command “Start!” the child stands behind the starting line. On the command “March!” the child runs in a zigzag in the direction indicated by the arrow between the balls and finishes. The teacher turns off the stopwatch only after the child has covered the entire distance. Time is measured with an accuracy of 1/10s. The test is carried out by one child 2 times and the best result is recorded. If the child touches the ball or pushes it out of place, goes off course or falls, the test is repeated.
The child needs to be shown.
The test is intended for children from 4 to 7 years old.

Test to determine the increase in indicators of psychophysical qualities
To assess the growth rate of indicators of psychophysical qualities, we propose to use the formula proposed by V.I. Usachev:
100(V1 – V2)
W = ½ (V1+V2)
where W is the increase in rate indicators in %
V1 - initial level
V2 - final level.
For example: Sasha D. jumped 42 cm from a standing position at the beginning of the year, and 46 cm at the end. Substituting these values into the formula, we get:
W= 100(46-42) = 9%
1/2(42+46)
Is it good or bad? The answer to this question can be found in the scale for assessing the rate of growth of physical qualities.
Scale for assessing the growth rate of physical qualities of preschool children
Growth rate (%) | Grade | How was the increase achieved? |
Up to 8 | Unsatisfactory | Due to natural growth |
8-10 | Satisfactorily | Due to natural growth and natural physical activity |
10-15 | Fine | Due to natural growth and a targeted system of physical education |
Over 15 | Great | Through the effective use of natural forces of nature and physical exercise |
Thus, the presented tests and diagnostic techniques
allow:
- assess various aspects of children's psychomotor development;
- see the dynamics of physical and motor development, the formation of coordination mechanisms and processes of their control;
- widely use these tasks in the practical activities of preschool institutions.
