Why classify motor skills? - Answer✔-Provides basis for identifying similarities/differences
among skills
-Provides basis for developing principles related to performing and learning motor skills
One-Dimension Classification Systems - Answer✔are based on one common skill characteristic
that identifies similarities among skills, and are divided into two categories
