Goals of a concentration and memory improvement group
The two main aims of the concentration and memory improvement group are:
-
Improve concentration and listening skills in relation to activities both at home and in school
-
Improve memory and information retention skills
The occupational therapists would use activities and games to promote the underlying skills needed to maintain sustained attention and remember information. These activities include a quiz based on a small section of text or concentrated work on one particular task. The children who have difficulties concentrating often get frustrated and may find home and school life challenging; a concentration group can help these children manage their frustrations. An outcome measurement tool would be administered at the beginning to provide a benchmark for future sessions and at the end to show any changes.
Benefits of group therapy:
-
Clear outcome measurement across the course of the group
-
Build social skills
-
Tailored functional improvements for each group
-
Realise your child may not be the only one experiencing these difficulties
-
