ALGEMEEN
KRUIP- EN SEILPROGRAM (vanaf 3 jaar tot Gr 2)
Die kruip- en seilprogram ontwikkel die korteks van die brein en word gevolg tot aan die einde van Gr 2 of totdat die leerder volledig regs-lateraal of links-lateraal is - met ander woorde: regs dominante hand, oog, oor en voet het of links dominante hand, oog, oor en voet het.
Waarom is bogenoemde so belangrik? Indien die leerder nie volledig links dominant of regs dominant is nie kan die volgende probleme verwag word, naamlik: omkerings van letters en syfers; skryf van regs na links; nie in staat om die midlyn te kruis nie; en probleme met organisasie en beplanning.
Die kruip- en seilprogram is ook nodig vir goeie visuele ontwikkeling.
Leerders sal slegs verskoon word van hierdie program indien daar ‘n siektetoestand is, en dit aangeteken is op die bord in die klas.

“We believe human mobility and physical excellence to be a beautiful process of nature, a process whereby a tiny, immobile infant learns to adapt to his environment and pull himself up to higher levels of mobility and higher levels of brain function. However, if you ask the world what it believes physical excellence to be, you will get a very different answer – one that involves bristling muscles, the powerful athlete, the great competitor.
At The Institutes for the Achievement of Human Potential (IAHP) in Philadelphia Pensylvania, USA, we are not too thrilled by what we call “games”. Games like baseball, football and basketball are all contrivances of man. Maybe hundred years ago, no one had ever heard of them – and who knows, maybe a hundred years hence, no one will have heard of them, either? One of the major problems of these games is that they pit man against man in simulation of war.
We think there’s more than enough of that going around today. We don’t have to run around simulating it! Is this to say that we are opposed to competition? We are opposed to any brand of competition that dictates that I must score more points than you, I must overcome you – or prove that I am somehow superior to you.
The chances are good that if you are today a little flabby, overweight, or simply avoid physical activity, you were probably assigned to one of the “losing” teams as a kid. What a great sadness that so many of us, because of past competitive situations, have been turned off to the sheer exhilaration of human mobility and experiencing all of our lovely planet and its beautiful terrains.
We do teach our children here at the IAHP what we believe to be a higher brand of competition, one that goes like this: If I want to reach some new higher level of mobility, one that I have never yet attained, only I can be the obstacle. If I overcome myself and achieve my goal, then I have won. In short, we teach the children self-competition.
We believe that if there is ever going to be a higher level of mobility, a Level XVIII, a higher, more sophisticated level of brain function, it will come about based on our ability as human beings to adapt better to our environment, and environments other than our earth’s surface.
We advocate for our children those physical activities that are essentially extensions of basic mobility: activities such as ballet, gymnastics and figure skating are examples of human mobility made into an art form while other activities like swimming, climbing, skiing, hiking and even sailing and horseback riding are ways we human beings have devised to explore our planet. These activities put us against our environment; they encourage us to better ourselves; they have been around for a long time and are destined to remain with us for a long time to come. They can be done by one person alone, or by a team of people. When accomplished together as a team, the team is working together – not to defeat another group of people – but to get happily and safely through the activity.”
