Description: "This guided curriculum offers a way to help children and young people aged 5-18 years. Activity worksheets provide instructions on how gross motor tasks can be accomplished through incremental stages, building up to the achievement of a specific activity, such as climbing, riding a bike or playing football. The step-by-step programme will enable adults to chart the child's progress whilst encouraging children to become engaged in mastering their motor coordination skills. Additional resources including warm up and cool down activity ideas, an initial assessment tool and a certificate of achievement will help parents and professionals to deliver the programme effectively at home or at school"--Back cover.
