PMP

We had our last day of PMP on Tuesday. We have loved PMP and every session we have learnt new skills. We have improved our fitness, balance, eye-hand coordination, movement skills and eye tracking. Thanks very much to all our helpers who volunteered their time to support our learning.

Room 1 and 2 PMP Assembly Item

Room 1 and 2 presented an assembly item all about PMP (PERCEPTUAL MOTOR PROGRAMME). We do PMP every Monday and Tuesday afternoon.

PMP is all about learning how our bodies move and developing our brains. Every PMP session has 5 stations:-

EYE-HAND COORDINATION- getting our eyes and hands to work together.

FITNESS- Fitness activities get our hearts pumping.
BALANCE- having control over our bodies.
LOCOMOTION- different ways of moving.
EYE TRACKING-exercising our eyes to help us with reading and writing. 
Room 2 showed some eye hand coordination and balance activities.Room 1 showed some of the activities we do for fitness and locomotion.

PMP is fun, challenging and helps us learn. We would like to thank the Balclutha Round Table who helped pay for the equipment and our wonderful parents who come along every week to help us.
