Trina is a student who works well with her peers and completes all tasks asked of her. Trina listens well
to her classmates instruction and always participates in team activities and warm ups. Trina listens well to
directions from her teacher and can work independently as well on her own. She is eager to participate and
responds well to positive reinforcement. She is an enthusiastic girl who is very friendly and cooperative.
After assessing Trina with the CTAPE, which is the Competency Test of Adapted Physical Education,
this measures Trina’s skills in sport and fitness commonly included in the physical education curriculum. This
evaluation was completed in one day and Trina was very cooperative throughout the assessment. However,
certain times during the assessment, the equipment and the people around her would distract Trina. Trina
required frequent verbal prompting, physical prompting and demonstration. Due to Trina’s Fragile X syndrome,
she displays autistic tendencies, which can pull her attention away from activities.
Trina has great understanding of basic locomotor movements but due to her Fragile X syndrome, she
needs improvement in the areas of sport skills and fitness skills. Trina displays moderate motor deficit and is
eligible for adapted physical education. Due to her need of improvement in sport and fitness skills, Trina is
uncomfortable in participating in these activities. In the overhead pass skill with a score ranging from a 0,
which is the lowest, to 24 the highest, Trina scored a 1. During the evaluation of the overhead pass, she was
distracted and did not begin in a ready position. Trina slapped at the ball instead of using her fingertips to
contact the ball. Her wrist and fingers did not flex on contact and there was no follow through at the end. With
Trina’s evaluation on the volleyball serve with a high score of 36, Trina scored a 2. Trina did keep her legs in
opposition and flexed. She also did not transfer her weight to the balls of her feet or extend her legs for power.

Trina will need improvement on her catching skills as well. Due to Trina’s Fragile X syndrome, she
needs further development on balance while moving and shifting her weight in any direction. This resulted in
her continue development to catch a softball thrown from 40 feet scoring a 0 out of 5. Trina needs improvement
on catching a football at a stationary position as well as in motion. On both skills, she scores 0 out of 6 with the
stationary catch, and a 0 out of 5 on the moving catch. Trina would continually step away from the ball when a
it was thrown at her and can be due to a visual impairment.
Due to Trina’s Fragile X syndrome, Trina will need further development on her fitness skills such as
her sit and reach, which measure her flexibility. She was unable to keep her legs full extended for any length of
time. Trina scored of 5 out of 12 with her windmills, which also measures her flexibility. Trina was unable to
touch her hands to her opposite feet with verbal prompts. Moving to muscular strength, Trina was unable to
perform a push up scoring 2 out of 6.Trina would get into a prone position however could not hold herself there
for more than a second. Trina could not lower herself to the ground and lift herself back up. Trina also scored a
11 of her sit ups meaning she could perform 11 sit ups in a 1 minute span. Due to Trina’s reduced enjoyment in
fitness and sports skills, she struggles to participate in these activities for long periods.
