Resumen
The purpose of this study is to provide to Physical education teachers knowledge about evaluation of motor performance in elementary school. The motor performance was characterized by the variables of motor skill, corporeal-kinesthesis
intelligence, and motor fitness. Those variables were measured through three batteries of tests: the Bruininks-Ozeretzky Battery (BOB) to measure motor skill;
Xavier Battery (ICC) to measure corporeal-kinesthesis intelligence; and one battery test to measure motor fitness. The sample was composed by 67 boys and 83 girls,
aged between 11-14 years, enrolled in the municipal system of teaching in Santa Maria. The sample performed the three batteries in different periods of time and afterwards participated in individuals enterview. It is possible to conclud that all batteries above may be used in any brazilian public school, as long as they are adapted to the environment available. What and how to evaluate should depend on
the objectives and goals planned by teachers and students. The choice of tests and/or test batteries will depend on the knowledge of the teacher related to the use of materials, concerning to the variables that are being evaluated as well as interpreting the results. It is not enough to only choose the right instruments. The teachers should be certain about the physical space, the abilities to measure, the useful time to use the instruments, the number of students and the number of staff needed, and also about the material available. The brazilian teachers of public schools have a great
knowledge about their field of work, a lot of creativity and dedication, since today, the lack of material can t be use as an excuse for their pedagogic failure.
