Analysis of the motor abilities of the students of the correctional boarding school with musculoskeletal disorders
The article suggests and describes tests of motor activity assessment for children with musculoskeletal disorders (on the example of infantile cerebral paralysis) in the work of the LFK teachers of the correctional boarding school. Children diagnosed with infantile cerebral paralysis have difficulty managing their bodies in space because of muscle tone disturbance and coordination of movements, so their motor abilities are reduced. The authors say that there is no generally accepted treatment that allows the repair of the damaged brain, but nevertheless, if you use a set of procedures and exercises, the nervous system will be able to perform its functions. The expediency of testing the motor abilities of children with musculoskeletal disorders is due to the need for their evaluation by means of curative physical training at the beginning and at the end of the course of the motor activity development program compiled by the specialists of the boarding school. Positive dynamics of motor activity indices was obtained during a six-month course of exercises with extensive use of physical exercises and various techniques.
