Movement education is important for the development of children, so it should be ensured that children gain multiple experiences with movement education curriculum prepared by experts suitable for children's developmental periods. This should only be provided by experts who have taken or have taken the movement education course at universities' faculties of sports sciences or physical education and sports colleges.

Cronbach Alpha coefficient was calculated to determine the reliability of the scale. As a result of expert opinion and exploratory factor analysis, a five-point Likert-type scale consisting of 26 items was obtained. The scale consists of three dimensions. In order to determine the internal consistency of the scale, the item-total correlation was calculated and it was seen that the correlation values of all items were high. The Cronbach Alpha reliability coefficient, which was calculated to determine the reliability of the scale, was calculated as .962. When the findings related to the validity and reliability studies of the scale are examined, it can be said that the scale is a valid and reliable measurement tool that can measure the attitudes of the students towards the movement education lesson.
