Abstract

Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) of children with intellectual disabilities (ID) had a disruption experience and ID need help from others to develop their potential for movement maximally. The purpose of research and development of FMS through play activities in children with ID was expected to help improve FMS, cognitive abilities, pleasure and focus of attention of children with ID, so that children with ID had valuable experience in their lives, to be able to independently live their daily lives. The research method used was by research and development proposed by Borg and Gall. The subjects of small group trial used 9 children with ID and 4 teachers, and the stages of large group trial used 21 children with ID and 4 teachers in Primary School. The research instrument used rating scale. The data analysis technique was by using Content Validity Ratio (CVR) analysis to prove the validity level of the model of developing FMS through play activities, and used the difference test to prove the effectiveness of increasing the FMS results of children with ID in primary school. The results of the validity test model were high (CVR 0.475), so the mother was a hero game model fit the characteristics of children with ID and effective to increase FMS, cognitive, pleasure and focus of attention.

Highlights

Every human in this world always wants the best in his life, no one wants to be born in an imperfect condition, or grow and develop according to his age, but there are some pairs of parents who get special deposit from God, for this reason as parents must be prepared physically and mentally in the face of such things, because children are both a gift and a mandate given by God to parents
Small Group Trials The instrument used to assess the feasibility of the model in this small group trial was in the form of an assessment sheet made by researchers that had been validated by an Expert
An activity model of ‘My mother is my hero’ which was tested both in small group trials and large group trials was concluded that: (1) The activity model had high content validity in other words this model matched the characteristics of the second grade of retarded children at SDLB C, (2) The implementation of an activity model of ‘My mother is my hero’ was carried http://jurnal.unimed.ac.id/2012/index.php/jpehr

Summary

Introduction

Every human in this world always wants the best in his life, no one wants to be born in an imperfect condition, or grow and develop according to his age, but there are some pairs of parents who get special deposit from God, for this reason as parents must be prepared physically and mentally in the face of such things, because children are both a gift and a mandate given by God to parents. Children with Special Needs (ABK) are children with special characteristics that are different from children in general. Sabaruddin Yunis (2016) each person has advantages and disadvantages. From these differences it is hoped that we can respect and respect each other's differences. Mental retardation is differentiated into 4 (four) including: (1) mild mental retardation (IQ 55-69), (2) moderate mental retardation (IQ 40-54), (3) severe mental retardation (IQ 20-39), (4)) mental retardation is very heavy (IQ 20 and below). Twenty-five percent (25%) of mental retardation patients whose main causes can be identified are specific identifiable causes which are generally known biological causes, causes of impairment including genetic factors, infectious diseases, accidents, and environmental hazards, Davison et al (2006)
