Abstract

This study aims to identify the effect of some exploratory motor activities on the basic motor skills and environmental behavior of second-grade female students. The researcher used the experimental method due to its suitability for the nature of the research with one of the experimental designs, which is the experimental design of one experimental group with the application of pre- and post-measurements for the group. The study sample was randomly selected from the students of Ibn Al-Khattab School affiliated to the West Shubra El-Kheima district, which consisted of (22) female students to whom the main study was applied, and (22) female students to whom the exploratory study was applied. The researcher used the growth rate measures, basic motor skills tests, environmental behavior observation card, and the illustrated environmental cognitive test. The most important results were the existence of statistically significant differences between the pre- and post-measurements for the experimental group in the level of motor performance of basic skills (walking, running, jumping, skipping, throwing, and catching), and some environmental behavior variables through motor exploration for second-grade female students in favor of the post-measurement.
