Family Orientation Process

The need to guide the family of a girl with Down syndrome, 9 years old, to achieve the development of her basic motor skills is the problem that gave rise to the present research, carried out with the methodology of the case study of this family. The general objective is to propose a system of family-oriented workshops for the development of basic motor skills in a girl with Down syndrome. The criterion of the integral approach of the methods and techniques of scientific research was assumed, using methods from the theoretical level such as: the historical-logical, analytical-synthetic, inductive-deductive, structural systemic and modeling, from the empirical level: case study, document analysis, observation, interview, survey and socialization workshops with specialists. A system of workshops is proposed with a structure of three subsystems that include workshops, in correspondence with the processes of diagnosis, planning, implementation and evaluation, with two structural moments: the moment of cognitive debate and the moment of practical demonstrative activity and socialization.
