Abstract
The research investigates the level of fundamental motor skills in elementary school students. The study also explores the variation in motor skill levels among different types of schools in Indonesia, providing valuable insights for optimizing physical education programs based on each school’s unique characteristics and values. The study involved 68 grade 6 students from four types of schools, with an equal gender distribution. Motor skills were measured using the Motor Competence Assessment, comprising six tests. The assessment focused on balance, locomotor, and manipulative skills. Statistical analysis utilized one-way ANOVA with a significance level of 0.05, and normality was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. SPSS version 29 was employed for data analysis. The research reveals notable disparities in balance, locomotor, and manipulative skills among four school types. International schools exhibit challenges in shifting platforms (SP) as a balance test, suggesting targeted interventions. Public schools excel in lateral jumping (LJ) and shuttle running (SR), serving as a model for motor skill development. Nature schools lag in standing long jump (SLJ), indicating a need for targeted exercises. While manipulative skills show nuanced differences, nature schools excel in ball kicking velocity (BKV), suggesting a model for improvement in other schools. There is only one skill that does not significantly differ: ball throwing velocity (BTV). Overall, tailored interventions in physical education programs are crucial, with potential collaboration between public and religion-based schools for a more balanced motor skill approach. Sharing successful strategies is vital for a comprehensive and practical curriculum. The research underscores significant motor skill variations among schools, prompting targeted interventions in physical education. International schools need to improve their balance of skills, while public schools offer a model for effective strategies. Collaborative efforts in sharing successful practices can contribute to a more comprehensive and universally applicable framework for motor skill development.

Abstract
The aim of this research is to investigate and evaluate various research related to Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) in Indonesia, starting from the number of publications per year, research design to data analysis techniques. This research is a bibliometric analysis and systematic review. Article searches were carried out in sports journals in Indonesia, which are accredited by the Science and Technology Index (SINTA). The keywords used are motor skills, fundamental movement skills, fundamental motor skills and locomotor. A total of 127 articles published from 2011 to August 2022 were ana,lyzed according to the inclusion criteria, namely articles investigating FMS with early childhood and elementary school subjects. These findings show that publications related to FMS have increased from year to year. Quantitative research is the most commonly used (84 studies), with research subjects respectively being higher grade elementary school students (38 studies), lower grade students (36 studies) and early childhood (32 studies). The treatments often used to investigate FMS are game forms and models (51 studies). Meanwhile, the instruments and data analysis that are often used are tests (60 studies) and percentages (58 studies). In conclusion, it is important for researchers to increase the diversity of research types, supporting subjects, treatments, and selecting appropriate data analysis techniques to investigate FMS.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG143z0J

Abstract
Introduction. Physical activity in education should be tailored to students’ nature to allow them to develop their potential without facing challenges. The educational approach at the elementary school level fundamentally differs from that of higher educational levels. Elementary education prioritizes engaging and straightforward learning experiences.
Aim. This study aimed to identify challenges faced when learning artistic gymnastics at the elementary school level.
Method. This study employed a descriptive research approach, aiming to gather comprehensive information about a specific phenomenon. In this context, the phenomenon under investigation is the experience of elementary school students learning artistic gymnastics movements. Data collection was conducted using a questionnaire. The study sample comprised 80 elementary school students from Sleman Regency.
Result. The analysis revealed that difficulties in learning artistic gymnastics in elementary schools can be categorized into three primary elements: student-related, teacher-related, and infrastructure-related. Out of 80 students: 60 reported no personal difficulties, 45 indicated difficulties understanding teacher instructions, 55 stated no issues regarding infrastructure availability. It’s evident from these findings that teacher-related factors significantly influence students’ learning challenges.
Conclusion. The analysis indicates that out of the three elements identified, the teacher-related aspect requires the most attention, primarily because students often found it challenging to understand the teacher’s instructions for performing artistic gymnastics activities.

DOI: https://doi.org/10.56984/8ZG143XT7

Abstract
Introduction. Increased student motivation correlates directly with active student behavior. Not only does motivation enhance students’ active participation, but it also fosters their physical development in physical education classes.
Purpose. This study aimed to examine the impact of the Coaching Game For Upgrading Performance Model 515 (CGFU-PM515) on students’ motivation during physical education lessons in elementary schools.
Methods. The research employed a Quasi-Experimental One Group Pretest-Posttest Design. Seventy-five elementary school students participated in this study. The research procedure involved having students undergo lessons both without and with the application of the CGFU-PM515 concept. After the lessons, students were given the CMEF Physical Education Basic Education questionnaire to assess their motivation levels before and after the introduction of the CGFU-PM515 concept.
Results. Findings indicate that students’ motivation improved following the integration of the CGFU-PM515 method. The N-Gain Score analysis revealed a value of 0.73, which is interpreted as high. Additionally, a Wilcoxon test was conducted. Results from this test showed a significant increase in motivation among the 75 participating students.
Conclusion. The study concludes that the CGFU-PM515 approach positively impacts student motivation in elementary school physical education lessons.
