Abstract
The present research aims to show how different playful strategies planned in an intervention program can be implemented within the school and family environment to contribute to the development of gross and fine motor skills in high school students with disabilities. The strategies to be applied are related to a motor panel and motor circuits, as a work process to develop gross motor skills; while for fine motor skills, art therapy and the Teacch method, as a support by parents from home. In this research, a methodology with a socio-critical paradigm and qualitative approach was used, using the case study as a method through participant observation, interviews, parents’ record and documentary review as techniques for the collection of information, which will serve to identify the characteristics of each of the students and determine the best didactics to use. This research was innovative, because the crisis generated by COVID-19, in which all people were forced to quarantine and respect social distancing, forced us to look for new ways and strategies to reach students, for which, a web page was created, where parents can consult all the activities proposed in the intervention proposal and consult the authors if necessary.
