Rosner, Jerome – 1969
The Individually Prescribed Instruction (IPI) Model developed by Bolvin and Glaser (1968) is applied to a perceptual development curriculum for children manifesting learning disabilities. The Model utilizes criterion referenced tests for behavioral objectives in four areas: general motor, visual motor, auditory motor, and integrative. Eight units…

Harris, Albert J. – 1968
Four new approaches to remedial reading directed toward the stimulation of defective perceptual areas by procedures other than teaching reading skills are reviewed. The Delacato approach emphasizes the development of neurological organization and laterality. It may be useful for a small percentage of children with severe reading disabilities, but…

Kaplan, Bonnie J.; And Others – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1993
This study analyzed the efficacy of sensory integration treatment by combining data from a study of 96 Canadian children (29 from Alberta and 67 from Ontario children and all aged 5-8). Results indicate that the therapeutic effect of sensory integration treatment is not greater than other, more traditional methods of intervention. (Author/JDD)

Rosner, Jerome – 1972
This document describes the methods employed in, the information gathered during, and the current status of this project. The project attempted to (1) identify those perceptual skills that appear to be directly related to the basic classroom tasks of reading and arithmetic at the primary level, (2) identify perceptual skills that relate directly…

DePauw, Karen Pamelia – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 1978
Investigated was the effect on the sensory integration of 24 aphasic students, of a 7-month sensorimotor program-designed to stimulate the tactile, vestibular, and proprioceptive systems; motor planning ability; bilateral integration; postural and equilibrium responses; visual form and space perception; and motor development.

Kauffman, Nancy Allen – 1980
Seven characteristics of the learning disabled child are described and suggestions to remediate these problems, from the viewpoint of an occupational therapist, are provided. Following are the seven areas (with sample teaching suggestions in parentheses): (1)tactile defensiveness (encourage children to use sand, clay, and finger paint with sawdust…

Middlesex General Hospital, New Brunswick, NJ. Speech and Reading Clinic. – 1965
A scheme is presented for the development of perception and learning in which a hierarchy of skills begins with innate response systems and progresses through gross motor activities to more specialized motor systems represented by eye-hand coordination. The next stage of development, the control of ocular muscles, is discussed and the development…

Ball, Daniel W. – 1978
This teacher's guide provides Elementary Science Study (ESS) units that can be used with students in grades 1-12 in special education programs. The ESS units represent an interdisciplinary approach to learning and emphasize "hands-on" activities. Activities include Mirror Cards, Pattern Blocks, Clay Boats, Mapping, Earthworms, and…

THE FIRST OF A 3-VOLUME PERCEPTUAL MOTOR CURRICULUM, THE BOOK DESCRIBES A PROGRAM BASED ON A THEORY OF MOVEMENT WHICH THE AUTHOR LABELS MOVIGENICS (THE STUDY OF THE ORIGIN AND DEVELOPMENT OF PATTERNS OF MOVEMENT IN MAN AND THE RELATIONSHIP OF THESE MOVEMENTS TO HIS LEARNING EFFICIENCY). TEN BASIC CONSTRUCTS OF MOVIGENICS ARE OUTLINED, AND THE…

Union Township Board of Education, NJ. – 1968
Designed as a perceptual enrichment program for all kindergarten children, the project also emphasizes intensive perceptual training for children manifesting dificiency in this area of development. Screening was done of 869 pre-kindergarten children; those scoring in the lowest 5% on any one or more of the subtests or falling in the lowest 10% of…
