| Summary: | This is a handbook for teachers and deals with the promotion of body and spatial awareness through the use of educational gymnastics. Concepts are learned and an opportunity for sequential memory work given. The book provides the educator with groups of activities which have been developed from the simplest form to a level of performance where children can participate in games with other children. It includes a series of physical education lessons designed so that they can be taught to both poorly coordinated children and to normal performers in an integrated setting. The book also includes lessons for handicapped children with more severe coordination problems. There is also a chapter for recording the achievements of the children. It is a book full of practical ideas and information on work for children with coordination problems and can be easily followed by teachers and parents. |
