Abstract: Mild mental retarded children at SLB-C TPA Jember shows that their basic movement has not developed yet. It is proven by the learning activities for the adaptive physical education in the field where the students tend to be passive. Actually, they have very good muscle strength and endurance. They just need to train their muscle. The basic movement meant here is walking and running. One of the method used by the researcher to optimize mild mental retarded children’s basic movement is by using modified “gobak sodor” game. This research aims to analyze the ability before and after being given the modified “gobak sodor” game for the mild mental retarded children’s basic movement at sixth grade of SLB-C TPA Jember. The research design used is pretest and posttest one group design. The data collecting method used are observation and test. The sign test is used to analyze the data. The research shows that Zh is 2,05 and Z table is 1,96 on the critical score of α = 5% (two tails). It shows that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. Therefore, it can be concluded that the modified “gobak sodor” game affects significantly to the improvement of mild mental retarded children’s basic movement at SLB-C TPA Jember.     Keywords : modified “gobak sodor” game, basic movement &nbsp
