Background: Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) is a motor skill disorder which impacts upon a child, s ability to perform age- appropriate activity of daily living and academic performance. They have problems in gross & fine motors, their upper limb coordination are impaired, too .In this way, we decided to compare motors skills with BOTMP test in children with DCD and their normal peers. Methods: In this study 30 children with DCD (age range is 6/5-8/5) have studied and compared with their normal peers.Bruininks- Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency (BOTMP) was used. Results: The study showed Motor skills in DCD children are significantly poorer than their normal peers. (p<0/001) Gross motor, Fine motor skills and the upper limb coordination are significant impaired in DCD children. Conclusion: In the process of evaluation Children with DCD, standard instrument, like BOTMP can be used.BOTMP detected deficiency in gross & fine motor and other area like, upper limb coordination .We need accurate in formations for better treatment.BOTMP can be used in the process of evaluation for every DCD child , after that goals of treatment will be clearer.

They have problems in gross & fine motors, their upper limb coordination are impaired, too .
In this way, we decided to compare motors skills with BOTMP test in children with DCD and their normal peers.
Results: The study showed Motor skills in DCD children are significantly poorer than their normal peers (p<0/001).
Gross motor and Fine motor skills and the upper limb coordination are significant impaired in DCD children.
BOTMP detected deficiency in gross & fine motor and other area like, upper limb coordination .
Younger DCD children have problems in playing, writing and other gross & fine motors, in this time with more evalua- tion detect that other motor deficiency is related to gether.
(10) In these areas children with DCD have deficiencies: Fine motor, gross motor, low motor tone, body awareness, sensory integrity, visual perception, visual coordination and dyspraxia.
3 In table-3 shows gross & fine motor, upper coordination in BOTMP.
Table5: Differences between boys & girls in up- per motor co-ordination Gross motor skills between two groups are dif- ferent.
Therefore children with co-ordination disorder are lower in gross and fine motor than their normal peers.
