Child Centre Method Module 1 Primitive Reflexes (2 days) For teachers, therapists, learning support staff, parents, grandparents, and adults interested in working with children.
This is a workshop to help adults working with children reach their full potential. This workshop introduces the theory behind primitive retained reflexes and how they affect learning, emotional and behavioural issues.
Retained primitive reflexes can affect children’s learning, behaviour and emotions. They are integrated and switched off when an infant starts to have conscious control of his/her movements. They have a limited time span and are switched off or integrated through normal childhood activities. If the reflexes are retained they can lead to neuro-developmental delay and poor sensory integration e.g. they can impair balance which will cause a child difficulty in judging space, distance, depth and speed. Balance is vital for everyone, for example, when astronauts lose their sense of balance in space they start to write from right to left, reverse numbers and letters and produce mirror writing. The following reflexes are the ones that are most often retained.
ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, difficulty with reading and writing, concentration, focus and emotional problems, and behavioural problems are issues related to retained primitive reflexes.
WHAT IS COVERED IN THE COURSE?
• Learn the theory of retained primitive reflexes and how they affect learning and behaviour in children.
