Motor Activities

The practice of gross motor coordination allows the infant to perform experiential actions to reach maturity, evidencing the passage from practical action to the action of thinking. In this way, feelings and sensations are promoted; discovering one's own body, space and time. The objective of the research was to describe the level of gross motor coordination presented by five-year-old children from I.E.I. N° 0345, Lima and I.E.I. N° 166 "Warma Kuyay", Callao, 2020. The research approach was quantitative, basic type and comparative descriptive design. The technique used was observation and the instrument was the checklist validated through the expert judgment technique and the reliability was 0.911, according to Cronbach's alpha. The results obtained describe the differences presented by five-year-old students in relation to gross motor coordination; the main indicators being the prioritization of the body through movement and the orientation to the development of motor activities, especially in the first years of life. This, because it favors the physical, emotional, socio-affective and cognitive levels, which evidences the differences between the samples investigated.

Visually Impaired Children

The author compared the motor activities and environmental interactions of sighted and visually impaired children during unstructured play in their natural play environments to: 1) assess motor proficiency level; 2) establish frequency and kind of gross motor, manipulative, self-stimulation, and social/play behaviors; and 3) assess their use of the environment. Overall analyses suggest that some developmental delays observed in visually impaired children can be attributed to a lack of opportunity for gross motor interactions with the environment. An environmental intervention strategy and design principles are proposed which involve appropriate design of complex and accessible play environments, and personnel training to use the environment as an active educational tool.

Quasi Experiment

This study uses a quasi-experimental method conducted. This research is based on findings in the field of learning to count for young children who are not quite right, playing with numbers is a new method used to make it easier for children to follow arithmetic, using fingers children tend to be more interested and passionate in learning to count, play this is done very simply starting with introducing fingers, numerical symbols, and fine motor and gross motor activities in early childhood. The purpose of this study is in accordance with the findings in the field that how to learn to count children is less effective, so researchers try to provide a new method that is the method of playing the number fingers to make it easier for the numeric fingers to make it easier for children to learn to play counting. The ability of children in counting after knowing the method of finger playing this number is improved better than before using the method of finger play these numbers can be seen from the results of the study before being given the results obtained 31,7500 while after giving treatment by researchers the results obtained are 32.0625.Penelitian ini menggunakan metode quasi experiment dilaksanakan di. Penelitian ini didasari oleh temuan di lapangan pada pembelajaran bermain berhitung pada anak usia dini yang kurang tepat, bermain jari angka adalah metode baru yang digunakan untuk memudahkan anak dalam mengikuti berhitung, dengan menggunakan jari anak anak cenderung lebih tertarik dan semangat dalam mengikuti pembelajaran berhitung, permainan ini dilakukan dengan sangat sederhana dimulai dengan mengenalkan jari tangan, simbol angka, dan kegiatan motorik halus dan motorik kasar pada anak usia dini. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah sesuai hasil temuan di lapangan bahwa cara belajar berhitung anak kurang efektif sehingga peneliti mencoba memberikan metode baru yaitu metode bermain jari angka untuk lebih memudahkan jari angka untuk lebih memudahkan anak dalam proses pembelajaran bermain berhitung. Kemampuan anak dalam berhitung setelah mengenal metode bermain jari angka ini menjadi meningkat lebih baik dari sebelum menggunakan metode bermain jari angka tersebut hal ini terlihat dari hasil penelitian sebelum diberikan treatment diperoleh hasil 31.7500 sedangkan setelah pemberian treatment oleh peneliti diperoleh hasil 32.0625.

Therapy Intervention

Vojta therapy has been reported as clinically beneficial for strength, movement and gross motor activities in individual cases and is being included within the second of three levels of evidence in interventions for cerebral palsy. The goal of this study is to understand the effect of Vojta therapy on the gross motor function. Our clinical trial followed a one group, pre-post design to quantify rates of changes in GMFM-88 after a two-months period undergoing Vojta therapy. A total of 16 patients were recruited. Post-intervention acceleration rates of GMFM-88-items acquisition (0.005; p<0.001) and Locomotor Stages (1.063; p<0.0001) increased significatively following Vojta the­rapy intervention. In this study, Vojta therapy has shown to accelerate the acquisition of GMFM-88-items and Loco­motor Stages in children with cerebral palsy younger than 18 months. Because functional training was not utilised, and other non-Vojta therapy intervention did not influence the outcome, Vojta therapy seems to activate the postural control required to achieve uncompleted GMFM-88-items.
