Topic - Move and learn
Kids have gotta move to learn. Movement stimulates all the nerve cells that we think with and primes those cells to do stuff by turning on the attention systems. Movement causes the front of your brain to turn on allowing you to manipulate information. You’ll also be able to manage frustration and stick with learning longer. Kids who move learn better and behave better in the classroom. For third and fourth graders who have a lot of disagreements and injuries at recess, scheduled movement breaks reduce those problems dramatically. Eighty percent of elementary schools in the US are using free 2-minutes videos from the GoNoodle company to provide entertaining content to kids to help them move around and then, get back to their schoolwork. Movement improves learning in kids and productivity in adults.
