Cognitive orientation to daily occupational performance is an intervention approach that is often used with children with developmental coordination disorder, and is usually implemented using an individual intervention format. This practice analysis describes two experiences of the cognitive orientation to daily occupational performance approach, modified for use in a group format: an intensive day-camp, and a weekly after-school club. The group format provided children with various opportunities (for example, helping other children and realizing that different 'plans' work for different people) and challenges (for example, maintaining both children's engagement during problem solving and heterogeneity in children's breakdowns). Cognitive orientation to daily occupational performance in a group format is feasible and has the potential to encourage skill acquisition for a greater number of children with developmental coordination disorder.
