First Claim
1. A method for developing a user'"'"'s perceptual motor skills comprising:
- providing a plurality of sheets that define a project to be completed by a user, wherein at least some of the sheets include indicia providing a skill development activity, wherein the indicia for at least one skill development activity on at least one of the plurality of sheets contains a clue to be identified by the user, and wherein the user'"'"'s identification of the clue is necessary for the user to complete the skill development activity represented by the indicia of another of the plurality of sheets;
cuing the user, via at least one of the plurality of sheets, to complete the skill development activity on the sheet containing the clue to thereby identify the clue; and
cuing the user, via at least one of the plurality of sheets, to use the identified clue to complete the skill development activity on another of the plurality of sheets, wherein the skill development activities are configured to collectively develop the user'"'"'s visual discrimination skills, visual memory skills, visual spatial relationship skills, visual form constancy skills, visual sequential memory skills, visual figure ground skills, and visual closure skills.

Abstract
A method for developing a user'"'"'s perceptual motor skills. The method includes providing a plurality of sheets and providing, on each of the plurality of sheets, a skill development activity to be completed by a user. Collectively, the skill development activities require the user to employ each of the user'"'"'s visual discrimination skills, visual memory skills, visual spatial relationship skills, visual form constancy skills, visual sequential memory skills, visual figure ground skills, and visual closure skills. The method includes providing pictorial indicia on each of the plurality of sheets that provides a thematic link between the plurality of sheets, binding the plurality of sheets together in a predetermined order, and cuing the user to complete the skill development activities of the plurality of sheets in the predetermined order.
