Developmental directions
Motor dev characteristics
sensory and motor dev by age 1
physical dev by age 1
Hourglass: model of motor dev
4 mvt phases that impact our lifelong daily living utilization, lifelong recreational utilization and life long competitive utilization
4 mvt phases of the hourglass model
1- reflexive mvt
2- rudimentary mvt
3- fundamental mvt
4- specialized mvt

stages of the mountain of motor dev
-reflexive
- preadapted
- fundamental
- context specific
- skillful
classification of the motor aspect of movement and motor skills
classification of the environmental aspect of movement and motor skills
classification of the temporal aspect of movement and motor skills
classification of the functional aspect of movement and motor skills
Phases of mvt/ Motor dev
1- reflexive
involuntary sub cortically controlled mvt in utero and early infancy
2- RUDIMENTARY
mvt of infancy influences by maturation
3- FUNDAMENTAL
basic mvt skills of childhood
fundamental mvt dev stages
1- INITIAL STAGE
- walking with short steps
2- ELEMENTARY STAGE
- walking heel to toe
3- MATURE STAGE
- reflexive arm swing
GROSS motor skills
Predictable sequence of activities
roll over -> crawl -> walk
sit up ->stand -> run
landmarks of dev hand control
At birth: grasping reflexive
3Months: grasping becomes voluntary
9-12 months: pincer grasp
Phases of mvt for stability
Reflexive: labyrinthine, body righting
Rudimentary: control of head and neck
unsupported sitting/standing
FUNDAMENTAL
- balancing on one foot
Phases of mvt for locomotion
REFLEXIVE:
-crawling reflex
-primary stepping reflex
RUDIMENTARY
-crawling
-upright gait
FUNDAMENTAL
- walking, running, jumping
Phases of mvt for manipulation
REFLEXIVE
- palmar grasp
- pull up
RUDIMENTARY
- reaching, grasping, releasing
FUNDAMENTAL
- throwing
- catching
- kicking
definition: Plasticity
the degree to which a developing structure or behavior is modifiable due to experience
Piagets theory of stages of cognitive dev
birth - 2y/o: Sensorimotor
2-6/7y/0: preoperational
7-11:concrete operational
12+: formal operational
