Abstract des Autors

In all countries of the world and in every social group there are people with different disabilities. Their number in the world keeps growing significantly. In accordance with the statistics of the World Health Organization concerning the industrialized countries, the number of children at the age under 16 years suffering from hearing impairment of different etiologies in Russia exceeds 600 million and is growing steadily. The quality of life of hearing impaired children is deteriorating. They have cannot communicate with others which inhibits the further full development of their central nervous system. One of the key problems of the physical development of children with sensory impairments compared with healthy children is the reduced development of coordination abilities (CA), and it is especially evident at the secondary school age. The purpose of the research was scientific substantiation of the effectiveness of the effect of the exercise set on the basis of elements of rhythmic gymnastics on CA of hearing- impaired children at correctional school of the type ll. The study confirmed the authors' hypothesis that the application of the set of exercises based on the elements of rhythmic gymnastics at physical education classes improves CA of hearing impaired children. However, the findings extend the existing ideas about the possibility of a corrective effect on the level of physical development of hearing impaired children and suggest the possibility of their widespread use at physical education classes in correctional educational institutions and at home.
