Description
Summary:A developmental disorder can be reflected in the subject’s motricity, which justifies the qualitative observation of movement aimed at screening and even diagnosing disabilities and developmental disorders. However, adolescents with low school performance show unusual motor manifestations not observed in the general population and that do not necessarily reveal themselves in motor or functional skills, but in the quality and proportion of the movement in relation to the act. Based on the scarce literature on this phenomenon, this article aims to address the construct that we call motor gesture, contributing to a reflection in the field of Physical Education, aiming to improve its technical, scientific and pedagogical processes for the inclusion of the studied population.
