Pedagogical Control of Motor Readiness of Junior School Boys

The research objective is to come up with model for classification of motor readiness level in boys aged 7-9.Research methods. Achieving the tasks of the research relied on the use of the theoretical and empirical methods, namely: analysis and collation of scientific and methodological literature, system analysis, modeling, anthropometry, pedagogical testing, pedagogical observations and experiment, methods of mathematical statistics.Research results. The study revealed statistically reliable deviations in the mean group testing results in the following tests: No. 2 “Walking on hexagon segments (steps)” (p < 0.033), No. 3 “30‑m (s) running)” (p < 0.001), No. 4 “Standing long jump (cm)” (p < 0.002), No. 5 “300-m (min) Running” (p < 0.001), No. 6 “Pullup on a rope in mixed suspension (times)” (p < 0.038), No. 7 “Shuttle run 4x9 m (s)” (p < 0.001), No. 8 “Raising to a sitting position in 1 minute (times)” (p < 0.009), No. 11 “Height (cm)” (p < 0.001), No.15 “Acromion-acromion distance (cm)” (p < 0.001), No. 16 “Index evaluation of shoulder joint flexibility” (p < 0.005), No. 17 “Side circles with a gymnastic stick (points)” (p < 0.009), No. 18 “Frequency of hand movements (times)” (p < 0.048), No. 20 “Walking in a straight line after 5 turns (cm)” (p < 0.002), No. 21 “Hold of a falling Dietrich stick (cm)” (p < 0.036 ).Conclusions. The first discriminant function can serve as the final pedagogical control of motor and functional readiness of boys aged 7, with emphasis on the most informative variables. If the results in the boys aged 7 prove similar to those in the boys aged 8, we can state the effectiveness of such physical education. The results shown by the boys aged 9 with emphasis on the most informative indicators of the discriminant function serve as a guidemark for the final pedagogical control of motor readiness in boys aged 8.
