Beschreibung
Assessing Neuromotor Readiness for Learning is a substantially revised and expanded edition of a long established INPP training manual that has been consistently proven in practice. The package includes tests for children, a developmental movement programme, and information about online access to INPP video training materials.
Based on the proven INPP model for neuromotor development screening and intervention, which is unique in having been rigorously evaluated in research and practice
Expands and revises an INPP manual which has previously only been available to training customers, and which is a foundation stone of the overall INPP approach
Places emphasis on children's physical development and how neuro-motor skills provide the foundations for learning success.
The package includes batteries of tests for younger and older children, a developmental movement programme
This book may be supported and enhanced by INPP video training materials and score sheets, available for download purchase from the INPP website

Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Assessing Neuromotor Readiness for Learning is not so much bedtime reading for the lay person, as it is a beautifully produced screening and intervention manual for practitioners and professionals working with young children - a substantially revised and expanded edition of the long-established and rigorously evaluated INPP training manual."
