  Abstract:  VIEW PDF: THE DEVELOPMENT OF BASIC MOTORSKILLS THROUGH PLAYFUL ACTIVITIES IN CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS

Introduction. A basic characteristic of people with special educational needs is the emergence of a certain state of instability, emotional imbalance, marginalization, or in more serious situations, a total break between individual and society. Objectives. The identification and selection of some motion games; the application of motion games in the development and improvement of motor skills; the evaluation of students’ involvement in the proposed motion games. Material and methods. The research was carried out on a group of 4 students with special educational needs, students of the “School Center for Inclusive Education” from Cluj-Napoca and was held from October 2012 to June 2013. The methods used were: observation, interviews, analysis of documents and case study. After having reffered to different books and works specialized in this field, we identified and selected a number of 12 motion games. This is the material that formed the basis of the present study. Results. Each of the four students have evolved differently, because each of them have their own pace of development. Conclusions. We arrived at the following conclusions: the improvement of the fundamental movements and postures of the body and of the various segments of the body of all the four students; the organization of movements in actions; the improvement of the motion skills by handling the object of the game, through the implementation of the necessary balance of technical processes and actions of the game.

Key words: special educational needs, motion games, motricity
