curric: MOVE Curriculum
MOVE Curriculum

    The MOVE (Mobility Opportunities via Education)® Program is designed to help people with severe disabilities learn the skills needed to sit, stand and walk. By combining natural body mechanics with instruction, learning occurs while students are engaged in real life activities. Included in the curriculum is a "Top-Down" Motor Milestone Test®, an explanation of physical prompts and how to systematically decrease them for more independent movement. Student goals can easily be incorporated into an IEP (Individualized Education Program) or other plan. The curriculum is spiral bound and includes section tabs to quickly locate information.

    The MOVE Curriculum is also available in Spanish.

    If you are currently using the MOVE Curriculum please e-mail us at move-international@kern.org and let us know. We would like to add you to our mailing list.

assess: Assessment Profile
MOVE Assessment Profile

    The MOVE® Assessment Profile is a workbook used in conjunction with the MOVE® Curriculum. Decisions regarding each step of the MOVE® Program are recorded in the individual's profile, making record keeping permanent and easy. The profile includes the "Top-Down" Motor Milestone Test and the Summary of Test Results, along with instructions and activity sheets. Upon completion, you have a detailed action plan for teaching critical skills.

    The MOVE Assessment Profile is also available in Spanish.
