We had our Wednesday visit with Mrs. Goldberg.  Her activity with the children incorporated color, cut and glue 3 step instructions.  Remembering 3 step instructions is a part of working memory and a very important executive functioning skill.  She also observed for posture, pencil/crayon grip, motor planning, visual discrimination, ability to cross the midline, sensory awareness and  proprioceptive awareness.  Proprioception is the internal sense that tells you where your body parts are without your having to look at them. This internal body awareness relies on receptors in your joints, muscles, ligaments, and connective tissue. They pick up information as muscles bend and stretch as well as when your body is still.  The children love having their time with Mrs. Goldberg!
