Fewer things cause more concern for parents and teachers than a child who appears to have a learning problem or behavior disorder. It is even more difficult when no specific cause or reason for the problem is given. Now, with the help of Physical Activities for Improving Children’s Learning and Behavior, you can learn about the possible underlying causes for a child’s difficulty and select from 99 fun-filled activities proven to promote sensory motor development.
Authors Cheatum and Hammond, who have a combined experience of more than 40 years in the special physical education field, explain the complexities of sensory motor development in easily understood language. More than 130 photos and illustrations show the developmental processes and activities, helping you understand and implement the information presented. All activities can be used at home or in the classroom and require little or no equipment.
Whether children show signs of clumsiness, motor skills below age level, or hyperactivity, Cheatum and Hammond provide activities to help them overcome their learning and behavior difficulties. With this book, you can ensure that you’re giving your children the extra help they need to be successful in and out of the classroom!

I really enjoyed this book. The authors know how to explain their material without using a lot of technical jargon. If you have read and enjoyed "The Out of Sync Child", I would recommend this as Part 2. It goes a little more in-depth and has lots of great ideas for activities. Very Smart!
