Focus: Motor Programme vs Discrete Skill / Principles of Skill Learning

Bell Question:

1. Go to Google Classroom and open the Motor Programme vs Discrete Skill reading.

        1. • The more you practice the skills, the more skillful a performer becomes

           • The more you practice the skills, the better the "mental blueprint" of muscle commands becomes. The muscles act in a manner that is consistent regardless of environment and feedback

2. Students will then work on the Principle of Skills Learning assignment, given in Google Classroom
