Instructional methods in physical education (PE) tend to be conceptualized in different approaches. This paper attempted to describe the level of academic achievement of third graders in the macro skills of motor learning and skill display and assumes significant differences in variables to propose some teaching strategies for improving motor learning and skill display skills. The results of the National Motor Learning and Skill Display Test revealed that 58.90% of students scored within the 81% to 90% range. The assessment of teaching strategies showed that overall, the strategies had a mean of 3.05 and a standard deviation of 0.83. The chi-square test for association between gross motor learning and teaching strategies was significant (Χ2 = 89.22, p = 0.00). The "Enhanced Motor Skills through Strategic Teaching (EMST) Program" is recommended to improve motor skills through effective teaching strategies.
