Résumé : |
Importance: The educational landscape is continually changing in response to legislation and the adoption of new standards, such as the Common Core. Currently, little is known about how these changes have influenced the school day.
Objective: To examine the motor and technology requirements of kindergarten, second-, and fourth-grade general education classrooms. Design: For 6 full school days, wemade unobtrusive observations of and took notes that described classroomactivities throughout the day. Data were coded by a committee, allocating each minute of the day into 1 of 10 activity categories. Setting: Kindergarten, second-, and fourth-grade classrooms. Participants: Three general education classrooms with approximately 20 students in each class. Results: Students spent between 37.1%and 60.2%of the school day performing finemotor activities, with handwriting accounting for 3.4%--18.0% of the day. Time spent using technology was relatively sparse in kindergarten (4.8%) and second grade (3.1%) compared with fourth grade (14.3%). Transitions between activities (18.9%--23.4% of time spent) exceeded time spent handwriting. Conclusion and Relevance: This article provides an updated estimate of motor demands throughout the school day. Estimates of fine motor activities were consistent with previous research, but the focus on handwriting appears to have substantially diminished. What This Article Adds: Within the context of their own school, occupational therapists may find transitions to be a good opportunity for providing services within the classroom. In addition, handwriting practice outside of school may be more necessary in the current educational climate than in previous years. |
