Abstract: This study was conducted to evaluate the movement responses of four first grade boys to teacher-stated movement problems. A secondary purpose of this study was to design an objective and reliable tool for the observation of movement responses and to design an objective and reliable tool for the analysis of movement problems. The study was conducted at The University Elementary School of The University of North Carolina at Greensboro over the second semester of the 1968-1969 school year. Two observers were used to observe the four subjects in physical education classes over a period of seven weeks or thirteen lessons. An objective and reliable tool was designed for the evaluation of movement responses. An objective and reliable tool for the analysis of movement problems on two criteria was also designed. The criteria for movement problems consisted of the limitation of the problem and the variety of response called for by a problem.
