The statistical population includes 7-11 years old from elementary school of Iman in the academic year of 2016-2017 in Tehran that among them, 24 students with developmental coordination disorder with a score of less than 16 in the MABC 2 test were selected as the statistical sample of the study. After the individuals, subjects were evaluated as the pre-test by the test of gross motor skills (Ulrich Second Edition) and eye-hand coordination test.
