PMP - Perceptual Motor Programme

Every morning at school Room 9,10 and some children from Room 5 go to PMP in the hall with Mrs Carr, Mrs Ousey and India (our teacher aide).

Here's a bit of background information for you... At PMP we get to develop our motor skills that are the foundation skills for many activities in the classroom. One of the major areas we look at is being able to cross over your midline which involves using both sides of the brain. For children to achieve in the classroom a child needs to be physically and developmentally ready. This in turn will have an affect on their ability to be able to remember what they see, hear and do. Moving is fun and one of the best ways to stimulate chidren to learn. The moving we do helps promote children's balance, posture, spatial perception, confidence, visual skills and the ability to focus attention.
