Logan, Thomas E.
Presented are numerous motor development activities for sensory impaired, severely and profoundly mentally retarded, and multiply handicapped mentally retarded students of all ages. Background information is provided on program objectives and administration, the multiply handicapped child, motor development, and methods of movement training. Activities for locomotion-mobility, manipulation, stability, and perceptual-cognitive skills are included in the categories of motor development, general movement, and early developmental training. Specific objectives are given along with unit introductions and individual activities. Sample activities include stair walking, jumping from a height, tumbling, and following an obstacle course. In a final chapter communication is discussed in terms of listening activities, manual signs for movements and directions, and the factor of sound. (Author/LS)
