Passage / Scenario
An 8-year-old boyThe nurse is assessing the gross motor skills of an 8-year-old boy. Which interview question would facilitate this assessment?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
The correct answer is B: Do you participate in any sports? This question facilitates assessing gross motor skills as sports involve physical movement, coordination, and strength. Participating in sports requires the use of gross motor skills such as running, jumping, and throwing, which are crucial for an 8-year-old's development. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as they focus on fine motor skills or cognitive abilities rather than gross motor skills. Asking about puzzles, instruments, or constructing models does not directly assess the child's physical abilities and coordination required for sports and other physical activities.
