The research aims to identify the effect of active learning in improving the performance of female students in the class Fifth grade primary for some skills of the floor movements apparatus in gymnastics The research problem included the following question: What is the effect of using active learning in improving performance? Fifth grade students demonstrate some balance beam skills in gymnastics. Using the experimental method by designing the experimental and control groups, representing the community Research on the students of Al-Yaqeen Elementary School in Al-Qadisiyah Governorate for the academic year 20242025 The sample consisted of 40 female students who were divided into two groups, each group(20) female The study was applied in the main section only of the educational units of (30) minutes, where the educational units were prepared Its number is (8) units, which took a period of 4 weeks. which students and the homogeneity and equivalence of the research variables were checked, and the most important results were that Active learning teaching has a positive impact on learning and developing the level of skill performance in Gymnastics skills of the sample. The researcher recommended using active learning as one of the Modern methods of learning gymnastics skills .
