Description:

Early diagnosis of motor skill delays is crucial in helping children with special needs. The Peabody Developmental Motor Scales (PDMS-2) is one of the most reliable assessment tools for determining the gross and fine motor skills of preschool and school age children. Results derived from the PDMS-2 contribute to a responsive learning and remediation program for the child with special needs.This eight-session (Feb. 23, March 2, March 9, March 16, March 23, April 13, April 20, and April 27) in depth training course is designed for clinicians who wish to administer the PDMS-2. The program will review the rationales underlying the PDMS-2, describe the test components, and the subtests, test administration skills with supervised practice sessions will be covered in depth. At the completion of this intensive, the participant will have the skills to successfully administer the PDMS-2 with populations which range from zero to seven years old. They will also become familiar with the Motor Activities Program, an instructional and treatment program for the PDMS-2 organized around the six skill units.
