A movement similar to sliding but progressing in a forward directions. One foot leads, and the other is brought rapidly forward to it. The body moves upward more than it does in sliding. 

Game skills 

Games allow children to apply newly learned skills in a meaningful way; social objectives include development of interpersonal skills, acceptance of rule parameters, and better understanding of oneself in a competitive and cooperative situation. 

Gross motor movements 

Often referred to as large-muscle movements. Most often used to identify locomotor and non locomotor movements.

For a jump shot, the shooter executes a vertical jump, leaving the floor slightly. The supporting (non-shooting) hand remains in contact with the ball until the top of the jump is reached. The shooting hand the takes over with fingertip control, and the ball rolls off the center three fingers. The hand and wrist follow through. 

Leaping

An elongated step designed to cover distance or move over a low obstacle

Misfeasance

Occurs when a teacher follows proper procedures but does not perform according to the required standard of conduct; based on performance of the proper action but not up to the required standard. It is usually the subpar performance of an act that might have been otherwise lawfully done. 

Muscular endurance

The ability to exert force over an extended period; endurance postpones the onset of fatigue so that activity can be performed to lengthy periods.

Muscular strength

The ability of muscles to exert force

NASPE

nonfeasance

Based on lack of action in carrying out a duty; this is usually an act of omission (i.e- the teacher knew the proper procedures but failed to follow them)
