摘要：The study was conducted in order to determine the appropriateness of assessment of the level of fundamental movement skill development of six-year-old children by using an obstacle polygon. In accordance with the aim of the study, a sample of 78 six-year-old pupils (39 boys and 39 girls) was used. Through high inter-item correlation and high Cronbach's alpha coefficient, the results clearly indicate excellent reliability of the measuring instrument. Furthermore, normality of the distribution clearly points to the good discriminative power of the polygon. The t-test showed no differences between boys and girls in both the applied polygon and morphological features. The results of the multiple regression analysis with two predictors showed no impact of the used morphological features on the performance of fundamental movement skill assessment manifested through the obstacle polygon. The obtained results clearly point to a very high applicability of the polygon in the physical education curriculum as an instrument for assessment and verification of fundamental movement skills among six-year-old children.
