The aim of the study is to study the impact of the exercise «Classic’s» on the performance of coordination and speed-power abilities of younger schoolchildren. Methods – pedagogical experiment lasted for 9 months, it was attended by 50 children who study in a regular school in the second grade. Physical education lessons were held twice a week, for 40 minutes. Speed-power abilities were determined by the test «long Jump». Coordination abilities were determined by the «Shuttle run» test. Programs Excel-2016 and Biostatistica-2009, t-test (p<0.05) were used. Results – after a pedagogical study, the indicators of schoolchildren in CG improved, but not significantly. Children from EG, who performed the exercise «Classic’s» at each lesson in physical education in school, were able to significantly improve their performance in both tests. In the «Shuttle run» test, the results were 19.1% higher (p<0.05), while the «long Jump» test improved from 113.3±6.1 cm to 141.4±7.4 cm (p<0.05). The results of schoolchildren from EG, show the effectiveness of the use of exercises «Classic’s» in physical education lessons at school, as an addition to the standard program. Conclusion – if the lessons of physical culture in school with children 8-9 years to perform the exercise «Classic’s», the performance of speed-power and coordination abilities will improve significantly
