GONCALVES, Adriana Garcia; BRACCIALLI, Lígia Maria Presumido e CARVALHO, Sebastião Marcos Ribeiro de. Desempenho motor de aluno com paralisia cerebral discinética frente à adaptação das propriedades físicas de recurso pedagógico. Rev. bras. educ. espec. [online]. 2013, vol.19, n.02, pp.257-272.

The main purpose of this study was to analyze the modified physical properties of an educational resource for facilitating the handling of a child with dyskinetic cerebral palsy. The participant of the study was a six year old child with dyskinetic cerebral palsy enrolled in a regular early childhood education classroom. The educational resource that was selected was a brick game, in which the physical properties of weight, size and texture had been modified. The analysis was made regarding the quality of upper limb movement to the variables: righting index, scalar displacement (s), average speed (As) and time (t). The results showed that combined large size and heavy weight did not have a satisfactory outcome, affecting both grasping the educational resource and fitting. There was also inconsistency in children with cerebral palsy’s responses. There is variation in the results, though a standard cannot be established. Thus, this study contributed to understanding the motor responses of a child with dyskinetic cerebral palsy when participating in a fitting activity with educational resources in which the physical properties had been modified.
