In consideration of national curriculum’s basic stipulations about talent cultivation in the compulsory education phase, and realistic national circumstances such as that “three-level curriculum management” is incomplete or imperfect, and that the majority of elementary and middle school physical education teachers have not had the ability to development curriculum or teaching con-tents, the inspirations brought to China by the setup of sports skill curriculum contents in Japan’s latest curricu-lum standard are as follows: carefully select core curriculum contents that point to cultivation objectives, and provide basic teaching content reference for frontline physical education teachers; value the setup of sports skill curriculum contents for the sensitive period in the low age phase, develop student’s basic sports abilities such as balance, agility and coordination etc. Key words: physical education and health curriculum;sports skill curriculum content;study guideline;Japan |
