Popis: | The paper deals with a constative study, i.e. the manifestation of coordinative ability in small schoolchildren. The applied tests and events constitute means of detecting several types of coordination. The subjects of the study are children in primary school (second grade), aged 7-9 from two schools, one in the countryside, the other in the city. Nine tests were administered in order to test the coordinative ability, in the halls of the two school, with the following results: • Coordinative ability displays different manifestation indices in children from the rural environment as compared to children in the urban environment. • The environment and lifestyle of most children has led to the reduction of their motor activity, as they live in small spaces and lack the proper playing conditions. • The environment prompts the child to steadily adapt to new motor situations, thus stimulating new processes of motor acquisition. The children become aware of their progress and can measure function of their environment. They are animated by a number of motivational factors which arouse their curiosity and prepare them for play and study, stimulating performance. • Learning is in turn affected by this difficulty, especially as far as writing is concerned. His relationship with the adults and other children is also impaired. • Restricting the vital space, by urbanisation and the invasion of concrete results in disturbances in the motive development of children in the urban environment. |
