This highly readable book offers a valuable compendium of practical strategies backed by clinical and classroom research for engaging students at all levels.
Whether you′re an elementary school teacher or a high school math instructor, you′ll discover how to use movement to increase intrinsic motivation, improve attitudes, strengthen memory, and boost achievement in your classroom.
