This is the Pre-Kindergarten Guidelines:
A. Gross Motor Skills
Children explore their physical space and understand how their bodies function in space through active movement experiences. Acquisition of gross motor skills requires collaboration of sensory systems (visual, vestibular, and somatosensory), postural stability, motor planning, and strength. To achieve new gross motor skills, practice and repetition are necessary. Typically, development of gross motor skills and postural strength coincide with the development of age-appropriate fine motor skills and maturation of the nervous system that allows for motor learning. Allowing young children to move and explore with their bodies facilitates growth in all the areas necessary for successful classroom performance.
This is a video to get kids moving.
Texas has a check list of how much the students should know and learn during their time in pre school. This link takes you to the Texas check list for not only physical education, but all of the subjects and criteria: Check List
