Exercise keeps brain cells working – in students and adults. Seventy percent of your body weight is resting on 4 inches of bone when you sit. Time on task is equal to the age of the child.

Our students learn best when you engage in as many learning styles/multiple intelligences as possible in each and every lesson. If we use more than 3 LS/MI in a lesson it is called a brainlink and that lesson will be remembered by more students for longer than a lesson that is not a brainlink.
