“…It can contribute for obscuring the real cause of motor alterations found in this study, because in one hand we know, according to the description in the literature, that the relationship between alterations in motor coordination present in dyslexia can be a signal of increased vulnerability of neural work, which is responsible for sensorimotor integration of information (Goez & Zelnik, 2008); on the other hand, it is still unknown the impact of lack of systematic work with fine and global motor skills since the beginning of literacy for students.…”

In the presence of developmental dyslexia, there is high probability of motor difficulties being present as well purposes: The purposes of this study were to characterize and compare the motor performance of students with dyslexia with students with good academic performance and to identify the presence of the DCD (developmental coordination disorder) co-occurring with developmental dyslexia. A total of 79 students participated in the research, both genders, from 8 to 11 years old, from 3rd to 5th grades, and were divided into Group I: 19 students with developmental dyslexia and Group II: 60 students with good academic performance. All the students were assessed using "The Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency" (second edition), to measure the motor skills and the pattern and differences between groups. The results of this study showed that the motor performance of Group II students was superior to the performance of students of Group I in almost all motor areas assessed but both groups performed less well than they should have for their chronological age. The results of this study indicate that occupational therapists, speech therapists and educators need to be aware of the presence of motor impairments and the need for early intervention in both the academic and clinical environments, in order to ensure that early identification and diagnosis of possible co-occurrences, such as DCD, and the impact on learning to guarantee more appropriate clinical and educational assistance for this population.This may also indicate that increased exposure to movement may be important to limit some of the secondary health consequences in children in Brazil.

Resumo: O avanço das neurociências na educação aborda aspectos da memória, da aprendizagem e da indissociável relação corpo-mente para aprendizagem do sujeito. Este estudo buscou correlacionar tais conceitos às Dificuldades de Aprendizagem (DA) específicas em cálculo (aritmética) e pressupostos da Educação Matemática. O objetivo foi investigar o impacto de um programa pedagógico, com atividades didático-manipulativas usando corpo/movimento, em um estudo longitudinal com 37 escolares com indicativos de DA em cálculo, entre 7 e 12 anos, oriundos de um colégio privado em Cuiabá, MT. Como resultado, houve um aumento no desempenho escolar da amostra, mostrando que o uso do corpo e de atividades somatossensoriais podem auxiliar alunos com DA a focarem a atenção e melhorar sua autonomia acadêmica, senso de autoeficácia e compreensão matemática. A indissociabilidade corpo-mente e a realização bem-sucedida do presente estudo confirmam a necessidade de se promoverem pesquisas em experiências e aprendizagem motoras para minimizar impactos das DA.Palavras-chave: Neurociência. Desempenho psicomotor. Aritmética. Cognição numérica. Educação matemática. Abstract:The advancement of neurosciences in education presents aspects of memory, learning and the inseparability of the body-mind relationship in the learning of students. This study sought to correlate these concepts with Learning Disabilities (LD) specifically in arithmetic and principles of Mathematics Education. The purpose was to investigate the impact of an educational program with didactic and manipulative activities using movement-body in an experimental typology study with 37 students (of a private college in Cuiabá, MT, Brazil) between 7 and 12 years old with indicative of LD in calculus. The main result was the increase of the academic results of the students, showing that the use of the body and somatosensory activities can help students with LD to focus attention and improve their academic autonomy, sense of self-efficacy and mathematical understanding. Believing in the inseparability of the body-mind relationship and in the positive outcome of this study we conclude the need to promote research in motor learning to minimize impacts of LD.
