This document provides a table for classifying various skills along continua from gross motor skills to fine motor skills. It asks the reader to place 10 different skills - such as a basketball lay-up shot, throwing a dart, a spin bowler's wrist action in cricket, and a gymnast's beam routine - into one of the continua columns and provide a justification for each decision. The goal is to determine whether each example involves larger or smaller muscle movements and place them on the appropriate point of the motor skills spectrum.
