Background: The purpose of the study was to present components of fitness and body composition and to determine the correlation between parameters of biological development in a group of schoolchildren. Material/Methods: Analysis of somatic features of 12-year-old children, of both sexes, from the Pomeranian province in Poland (99 boys and 96 girls) included basic parameters of the respiratory system, body fat, height and body weight. Functional indicators, i.e. components of motor abilities, have been tested. Results: Boys had significantly better results of endurance and jumping ability, and girls dominated in flexibility and somatic components like height, weight and skinfold thickness and additionally in Forced Vital Capacity and Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second. In the group of boys the Maximal Mid Expiratory Flow25/75 was significantly correlated with shoulders strength. In the group of girls Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second and its relationship to Forced Vital Capacity was correlated with shoulders strength. The Peak Expiratory Flow rate was significantly correlated with abdominal strength and flexibility. Forced Vital Capacity was correlated with flexibility and Forced Expiratory Volume in One Second - with flexibility too. The biggest intensity of correlation was observed in the case of boys skinfold thickness with speed, jumping ability, shoulder strength, agility and endurance. The group of girls has weight correlated with speed and jumping ability and skinfold thickness correlated with the same parameters. Boys’ endurance of was significantly correlated with weight and skinfold thickness and girls’ endurance additionally with height. Conclusions: Significant differences between males and females have been identified with regard to body type and fitness. In the group of girls more correlations between parameters of the respiratory system and basic components of fitness were observed. However, the opposite situation appeared in the case of relationships between the remaining somatic indicators (height, weight and skinfold thickness) and general components of fitness, where more correlations in the group of boys have been reported.

This study aimed to analyse the relationship between the formative assessment (FA) of Physical Education teachers and the level of self-concept of primary school students. In this descriptive cross-sectional study of 122 schoolchildren, self-concept was assessed using the Piers-Harris Self-Concept Scale and the teacher's formative assessment practices through the teacher performance questionnaire associated with formative assessment practices whose scores were validated. The analysis of bivariate correlations showed that higher values in proactive FA correlated with lower values in physical self-concept and higher values in behavioural, intellectual, and social self-concept (p < .05, for all) and interactive FA with higher values in social self-concept (p < .05). The simple analysis of variance detected statistically significant differences in proactive and interactive FA (p < .05, for all) in favour of those who had a higher level of self-concept. In turn, the linear regression test indicated that higher values in retroactive FA are associated with higher values in social self-concept (p < .039) and, that higher values in proactive FA are associated with lower values in physical self-concept (p < .023). It can be concluded that the FA of the Physical Education teacher can be a differentiating element in the development of self-concept.

The aim of the study is to study the impact of the exercise «Classic's» on the performance of coordination and speed-power abilities of younger schoolchildren. Methods - pedagogical experiment lasted for 9 months, it was attended by 50 children who study in a regular school in the second grade. Physical education lessons were held twice a week, for 40 minutes. Speed-power abilities were determined by the test «long Jump». Coordination abilities were determined by the «Shuttle run» test. Programs Excel-2016 and Biostatistica-2009, t-test (p<0.05) were used. Results - after a pedagogical study, the indicators of schoolchildren in CG improved, but not significantly. Children from EG, who performed the exercise «Classic's» at each lesson in physical education in school, were able to significantly improve their performance in both tests. In the «Shuttle run» test, the results were 19.1% higher (p<0.05), while the «long Jump» test improved from 113.3±6.1 cm to 141.4±7.4 cm (p<0.05). The results of schoolchildren from EG, show the effectiveness of the use of exercises «Classic's» in physical education lessons at school, as an addition to the standard program. Conclusion - if the lessons of physical culture in school with children 8-9 years to perform the exercise «Classic's», the performance of speed-power and coordination abilities will improve significantly.
