Day 2 of ABL training and the SMSD team is putting movement into action…crossing the midline, activating our brains, and strengthening the mind-body connection! Learning through movement is a powerful reminder that engaged brains create engaged learners. @ABLSUMMIT26 @StaffordMSD @SMSDECC @SMSDMiddle
Today our students joined millions of children around the world for Project ACES (All Children Exercise Simultaneously)! 🌎💪 #ProjectACES #MoveToLearn
A brilliant day delivering online workshops to Scottish primary schools - upskilling teachers in #ActiveLearning! 🏴🏃♂️

An important thread. I'll add: in #BrainGym, we've been teaching people how to sit in their "just right" positions for 40 years. It's a wrestle to "fix" things after after they're broken. Why not begin early on to guide kids to sit comfortably in gravity? #MovetoLearn
"Sitting is the new smoking."
If you sit more than 6 hours a day, you're killing your body and destroying your health.
Here are 4 ways you can adjust your desk set up to reverse the damages of sitting:
Yes, contralateral motion (as in walking) boosts brain function. Add the diversity of nature and all the ways it prompts your visual experience—every moment new and unique. If you can't get out for a walk, you can always do a few minutes of #CrossCrawl. #BrainGym #MovetoLearn
A Stanford study finds that walking improves brain function & enhances creativity. Try walking different routes to expose your brain to novel stimuli. Walking is meditation in motion!
YES! Let's increase habits of physical activity now, for ourselves and our kids. There's no good reason to develop a habit of being sedentary; the health trajectory of constant sitting is extremely poor. #BrainGym #MovetoLearn #Teach4WellBeing
Physical activity and reduced sedentary time is critical in the prevention of age-associated brain atrophy and neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia.
Just a moderate amount of exercise promotes larger brain volume, gray matter - this is linked to intelligence.
Great fun, and also wonderful for balance, coordination, neck strength, and the visual system! #MovetoLearn
1-2-3 Switch with 2nd and 3rd grade. Strike the balloon up 3x and switch with your partner. See how long you can keep the balloon up. Thanks @MikeMorrisPE @coachwalk #physed
Great post! Be sure, also, to stay active as you sit. You can do this quickly and easily with #BrainGym activities, such as Belly Breathing, Lazy 8s for eyes, the Seated Cross Crawl, the Energy Yawn, the Double Doodle, the Calf Pump, and more. #MovetoLearn #Teach4WellBeing
Why Exercise Is So Crucial for Maintaining Mental Health https://t.co/wrZVWHUiJM
One of the quickest ways to shift your "ordinary" experiences is to discover new sensorimotor habits. Such habits of movement and attention can prompt the joy of sensory aliveness and inner spaciousness, even in a difficult setting. #BrainGym #MovetoLearn
Rewire Your Habits, Rewire Your Life https://t.co/760vOpYLwM
I'll add: Reading, writing, and moving cannot be separated. Moving mind and eyes for reading is breathing in; moving mind and hand for writing is breathing out. #BrainGym #Lazy8s #MovetoLearn
We humans are designed to move. Every aspect of us, including our brain, will work better when we can sit and use tools (pen, paper, book, cellphone) without misaligning our eyes /rest of the body. #BrainGym #MovetoLearn #Teach4WellBeing #AlignmentMatters
Wonderful to discover the magic of our hands—to play, to create, to make nourishing food. In #BrainGym, we give the littles (or bigs) who have difficulty simple moves like Lazy 8s and the Double Doodle that activate eye-hand coordination. #MovetoLearn #Teach4WellBeing
Kids dont want to be distracted by a phone or a show
They want to be included
They want to help with errands
They want to do chores with their parents
This is how kids learn to basic stuff
And when they learn to do stuff, they learn to believe in themsleves
A terrific thread! In advanced #BrainGym courses, we include "ball on a string" moves for the quick and effective #VisionTraining they provide—usually using a soft vinyl ball or sponge ball, and in combination with contralateral movement, such as #CrossCrawl. #MovetoLearn
The biggest form of training you aren’t doing:
Training your hand-eye coordination.
Use these 4 eye-movement coordinative drills to improve your cognitive abilities, master your eyes, and sharpen your reflexes.

YES! Our eyes are often called on to spend hrs tracking words & ideas at a fixed near-pt distance. Meanwhile, out in nature, even for a short time, our vision can be shifted & refreshed by myriad colors, shapes, textures, spaces, & motions. #VisionGym #BrainGym #MovetoLearn
After just an hour of interacting with nature, memory and attention span improved by 20%.
Your brain needs vitamin N (nature) https://t.co/MJJQFeIOxW

Great ways to GROW memory and the brain; terrific explanations by a neuroscientist! Noticing, quality movement, Belly Breathing, aerobics, walking, good sleep, good diet—all things we focus on in #BrainGym! #CrossCrawl #MovetoLearn #Teach4WellBeing
Your brain isn’t fixed—it’s constantly rewiring itself.
Dr. Wendy Suzuki discovered a remarkable truth: Exercise isn’t just for your body—it’s the most powerful tool to transform your brain.
Here’s how movement changes your mind forever:
Movement, gravity, and nature are wonderful teachers. Children's innate motivation to learn through movement and play gives rise to a vast array of sensory, motor, and social skills, ever ready to unfold. #MovetoLearn #BrainGym #Teach4WellBeing
Walking in #nature prompts us to look around: left, right, up, down, and center, in many near and far trajectories. From tiny flower to tree canopy, nature stimulates our vision in vital and relaxing ways. #MovetoLearn #BrainGym #Teach4WellBeing
Hip-hinging, one-legged balance, eye-hand coordination, contralateral motion...a few of the key skills that can be learned through #play, and that can make an enormous difference in longterm well-being. #MovetoLearn #Teach4WellBeing
All the private (insert sport) lessons in the world will never develop the athletic foundation of fundamental movement skills needed to play higher-level sports. Train the physical first.

Love this! So many things I enjoy doing daily to activate the "challenge" state. In #BrainGym, we show learners how to enjoy routine (familiar level), embrace a challenge (pleasure level), and let go of "trying harder" (frustration level). #MovetoLearn #Teach4WellBeing
