Abstract

Aim. The aim of this study is to improve coordination in children aged 7–8 with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Materials and methods. The pedagogical experiment was conducted on the premises of the school of Olympic reserve No 1 (Kirov) from September 2017 to April 2018. The study involved 3 children aged 7–8 with autism spectrum disorders studying in the 1st grade of the special school No 13 (Kirov). All children belonged to different groups of autism, one child did not speak. Methods: theoretical analysis and review of the scientific and methodological literature; pedagogical testing; summative and formative assessment; methods of mathematical statistics. Results. In the test called ‘Stork’ the mean value improved by 3 scores or 30%. The mean value in tests ‘Jump’, ‘Lanterns’ and ‘Movement memory’ improved by 4.33 scores or 43.3%. Results are significant for all 4 tests at the end of the experiment (P &< 0.05). Conclusion. The results obtained allow us to suppose that gymnastic elements are the most effective for the development of coordination in children aged 7–8 with autism spectrum disorders and contribute to the improvement of movement experience in children.
