SETTING

                                                                                    Back

Setting implies creating a similar environment every time we work with children. This setting includes:

IN PSYCHOMOTRICITY CLASSES:Time. Psychomotricity sessions will be held once a week; for 45 minutes

·        Physical Space. Always the same place; large and comfortable.

·        Material. It is mainly characterized for being neutral, multiform, suitable for all ages and has not been chosen to suggest pre- established usage models: mattresses, big and small balls, ropes, hoops, cushions.

·        Rules. Every time we start working we remember the three rules: we can play but we do not hurt a friend, we do not destroy and we take care of the material.

At each session the setting is organized into three spaces:

·        THE SENSORY MOTOR SPACE; where children will mainly live the motor and emotional aspects.

·        THE SYMBOLIC GAME SPACE; where make- believe through motor expression is promoted

·        THE AFFECTIVE DISTANCING SPACE; where children are expected to paint and construct to foster mental representations
