ReplyDeleteorthopedic impairment is a disability that sometimes resists a persons ability to walk so they usually end up using a wheelchair.
some activities i think they are capable of doing are:
rugby
football
softball
tennis
bowling
soccer and
hockey
though these activities have to be changed in some way people with orthopedic impairment can still cooperate in these activities
an orthopidic inparement is whare you cant walk and a person with it cant play eany of the games (exept in a vidio game)
ReplyDeleteAn orthopedic impairment is when a persons limb is handycap and cant get around on their own. People like this usualy use wheelchairs. I think that people who are orthopedically impaired might do the following, paragliding, bowling, fencing, tennis, and softball. I think personally that they can do anything they really want to do if it has become a goal in life for them.

An orthopedic impairment is a physical impairment like maybe a club foot or multiple body parts, or even too few parts. It also affects the way the child learns, and their educational capabilities.
ReplyDeleteThe following sports are what i think someone with an orthopedic impairment could do in a wheelchair.
1.possible softball, if someone pushed them or they spun the wheels themselves.
2.Fencing, if they don't move around too much.
3.bowling, with the gutters blocked
I THINK that's it. definitely NOT paragliding.

ReplyDeleteok so an orthepedic impairment is when you dont have use of your limb because of amputiation or something else.
i belive you could do most of those things if you got so used to you new artificial limb that it was like never losing the limb at all! but under some circumstances some of those acttivities could not be done at all!
here is a list of why you couldn't do the activity!
mountain climbing-you cant do this if you were in a wheel chair!
rugby- maybe...
football-maybe...
skateboarding-nope
softball-sure! the miracle league kids play softball even if they are in a wheel chair
tennis- maybe...
fencing- if you can move your wheel chair fast enough
high jump-nope you need all four limbs to do that
bowling- yeah i think so
soccer-i dont know, isnt soccer like rugby?
hockey- do wheel chairs go on ice?
paragliding-no it would be too dangerous!
that is my reflection!
Problem with movement in your foot, leg,arm, etc.
ReplyDeleteDpending on the condition they could probably do all of those things...

I think that Orthopedic impairment means or has to do with you hand or leg. I'm not sure if it has to do with a replacement of a hand or leg!!

Orthepedic emparement is an emparment that is severe enough to have a negetive effect on a childs educational preformane.
ReplyDeletePeople with an orthapedic emparment could do bowling, football, softball, tennis, fencing,
and skateboarding in a wheel chair (like hard core sitting. I read about it in an article in a magazine. People ride around in a scateboarding rink in wheelchares, but it might be a little hard.)
I dont think they could do paragliding because it would be hard for them to land in thir chair.
They might be able to play hokey if they had special blades to go on wheels.
