July 25, 2010 in Questions

4365430962 d6e08f2ac7 m How do you teach motor skills to a toddler with mild cerebral palsy?
I’m working with a 2 year old child for one of my classes that has mild cerebral palsy due to past abuse by his father. He can walk but his right side is stiff and he favors his left side. I need some ideas on what to do with him. A theme would be great. Thanks!
I will have a developmental interventionist with me. I just have to have a couple of lesson plans together when my professor observes me.
