Abstract EN

This study aims to know the effect of using a program based on small games on the development of some motor skills and physical fitness for fourth grade students.

The study sample consisted of 80 students from the Mafraq directorate of education, the program of the study was implemented in the second semester of the academic year 2012 / 2013, students were randomly divided into two equal groups, the first experimental group was (40) male and female students; while, the second control group was (40) male and female students.

To achieve the objectives of the study, the researchers prepared a program based on small games and taught it to students of the experimental group for 8 weeks, while the control group was taught by the usual program in the school.

Then the researchers applied a set of motor skills and physical fitness tests to find out the effect of the program on the study sample.

The results showed there were statistically significant differences at (  0>05) between the control and experimental groups in the development of physical fitness and motor skills in favor of the experimental group.

Furthermore, there were statistically significant differences according to gender in the jump and accuracy tests in favor of males.
