Description
Connecting the brain and the body in our schools should be directed by the school Physical Educator. We are the natural link between the body and the brain since students simultaneously use both in our classes. The Physical Educator is the natural leader in promoting these activities. It is this person who should be taking the lead to show how movement anchors the daily classroom lesson. Twenty plus years of brain based research supports the move in this direction (Jensen. 2009). We have a golden opportunity to be on the cutting edge in education. The following are actual school based programs that are currently being conducted. These programs are as much a public information program as they are academic enhancement. Will you accept the challenge? Will you be your school's educational leader?
