People learn better when they move. If this is true for adults, it is even truer for children. Why is this so?
When you move, concepts are learned even down to the muscular level. Combining sound, with visuals and movement can make learning easier.
In a recent trial of multiplication drills using music and movement on mats by the GEO Motion Group in Orlando, Florida, second grade students not only caught up to where they were supposed to be performing, but they surpassed that level.
They even asked if they could stay in for recess and do math!!! Wow!
Get your children up and moving. Not only does it enhance learning, but it makes it fun – for you and the children!
