Krause, Dorothy; Olson, Borghild
This collection of color and symbol-coded cards comprises an activity program designed to help parents, teachers, or tutors teach basic movements to children. The 10 sets of activities included in the program are (1) relaxation, (2) flip flops and crawling, (3) lifting and rolling, (4) limb movements, (5) rolling, (6) creeping, (7) locomotion (walking, running, and jumping), (8) balance, (9) locomotion (hopping, skipping, and galloping), and (10) body parts. Each of these sets contain five kinds of movement patterns: (1) general movements, for control and coordination; (2) specific movements, for development of skill and dexterity; (3) eye movements, for improved visual perception; (4) communication patterns, for development of body and vocal language; and (5) visual-perceptual patterns, for observing and thinking. Activity instructions, material suggestions, and performance assessment cards are included. (ST)
