SANTOS, Ana Paula Maurília dos et al. Effects of Motor Intervention in a Child With Williams Syndrome. Rev. bras. educ. espec. [online]. 2015, vol.21, n.3, pp.423-432. ISSN 1980-5470.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-65382115000300008.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the motor development of a child with Williams syndrome and to verify the effect of a motor intervention program. This is a descriptive case study. Motor development was evaluated using the Motor Development Scale - MDS. The child's motor assessment, motor intervention (32 sessions, twice weekly) and motor reevaluation were carried out. Gains were demonstrated in motor intervention in the areas of fine motor skills, balance and spatial organization. Body Schema and temporal organization were found to be the areas of lesser achievement. The motor quotient generally for all items was classified as very low, characterizing motor deficit. The data justifies the relevance of motor intervention programs for children with Williams syndrome.
