Abstract

Young school-age for children with intellectual disabilities is rightly considered a period of major importance in the process of human personality formation. National and international experts in the field demonstrate, with theoretical and empirical arguments, that, at this age, the child's various abilities are intensely developed, character traits are formed, the foundations of health are laid, taking place an upward evolution of the physical abilities so necessary for the effective involvement of the person in various forms of motor activity. In this context, starting from the socio- economic particularities of the modern society, namely the physical education has the mission to ensure the practical realization of the right of every child to an unhindered, multilateral, full and continuous development.
