| The Kinesthetic Classroom: Teaching & Learning through Movement |
| This highly interactive session will enliven your K-12 classroom and content through the use of dynamic movement. Participants will discover a six-level framework for using movement with a purpose, including preparing the brain, providing brain breaks, supporting exercise and fitness, developing class cohesion, reviewing content, and teaching content. The session will fully explore the connections between fitness and cognition, implicit learning and academic success, state and classroom management, and why movement enhances the learning process. |
