Keep all files in the same directory and double click on the Overview.html file SmartMoves, a DVD, designed for students in grades 3-12, leads students through a series of increasingly complicated body movements that function as a kind of calisthenics for the brain. Forty Body Puzzles at varying levels of difficulty: Simple, Simple Too, Tricky, Challenging, and Formidable, are included in the SmartMoves DVD. A supplemental Teacher's Guide is also included. Teachers and researchers agree — more and more children develop learning disorders every year. Classrooms are filled with bright children who have trouble learning, shorter attention spans, more impulsive behavior, and decreasing scores in reading and language skills. Developed with these students in mind, SmartMoves provides the following benefits to ALL students: * Less stress and anxiety * Improvements in ability to focus and working memory * Greater ability to integrate multiple concepts * Improvements in balance and coordination * Gains in academic achievement Why SmartMoves? Movement prepares the brain for optimal learning, and promotes brain plasticity. Learning complex movements increases the growth of connections between neurons, sharpens memory, improves focus, and increases the capacity to master new information. Though seemingly simple, the Body Puzzle movements call on a synthesis of the visual, auditory, motor planning and thinking skills that are at the core of learning. Students find them intriguing. Classroom teachers find they help students switch on right, left, and whole body coordination, visual-spatial reasoning, listening, balance, and focus.
