The Role Of Dyspraxia In Children
Dyspraxia is a condition that affects perception, coordination, thinking ability, and the overall potential of a child. Dyspraxia makes it difficult for the brain to process information even when information are processed the information processed can’t be activated because of poor coordination of fine and gross motor skills which affect educational learning.
Children become physically clumsy, have difficult in maintaining accuracy during classwork or during team work with other peers, it becomes extremely difficult for these children when copying or producing sound, writing and making movements from one place to another because when fine and gross motors can’t be coordinated movements are restricted and when movements are to be made additional support is needed to make coordination of those joints. This condition affects children’s activities, abilities and learning for rest of their life from bathing to eating, to organising and planning themselves for school which will be impossible without additional provision. …show more content…
Teaching a child with dyspraxia will entail having lots of patients to render support because of their coordination abilities but with good practice, motivation and dedication to learning development goals can be achieved either way practitioners just need to gain their confidence and believe once that is obtained the child will tend to improve with swings, partial movement with aid of a therapist progress will be gradual and change is
