  abstract: Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effectiveness of teacher directed and movement education methods to teaching sports skills. Comparisons were made at the third and sixth grade in basketball, soccer, and softball. Subjects in the highest and lowest one-third were also compared. Three sub-problems were examined: ability to participate competitively, attitude changes, and time distribution within the units. Procedure: Subjects were male third and sixth grade students assigned to one elementary school in Miami, Florida. Subjects were assigned by class to the control, movement education, or teacher directed treatment. Class sizes ranged from twenty-five to twenty-eight at the third grade and thirty to thirty-three at the sixth grade. Classes were taught by the same instructor. Classes received twenty minutes instruction five days per week. Twenty-one days were allotted to instruction in each sport. Six skill tests and an attitude survey were given before each unit and repeated at the end of the unit. Subjects were filmed in a modified game, and the film was evaluated by a jury of experts. Classes were video taped and evaluated to determine the utilization of time during the lesson. The statistical treatment was conducted independently for each activity. A multiple factor analysis of variance was used. The Scheffe method was used to test differences between all possible pairs in skills and attitudes. This treatment was conducted independently at each grade. Pretest scores were compared to determine differences prior to instruction. Post test scores were compared to evaluate change brought about by instruction. Control group scores were compared to determine if change was due to contemporary history and maturation or to the method of instruction. The mean scores of jury ratings were compared. Time utilization was presented in percentages..
