Abstract
The PF-MAC is a module that allows the client to focus on fine motor coordination and
dexterity. The PF-MAC has several different activities that the therapist has the option to set up
or allow the client to choose from. This module is designed to allow the therapist to work with
their client to address performance components in a fun and meaningful way. Some of these
activities include nuts, bolts, and washers, marbles, checkers, chess, tic-tac-toe, lacing, rubberband
stretch, peg cognition test, mirror therapy and tool use activities. These activities may be
adapted to provide the client with a “Just right challenge” by using the PF-MAC in a horizontal,
vertical, or angled position. The therapist and the client may (and are strongly recommended
to) create additional games and find additional uses besides the brief set of activities listed in
this booklet.
