Learning in Motion

Inclusive active education in kindergarten and primary school

• A whole body approach for inclusive, active education
• Practical examples for targeted, individualized student assistance

Learning disabilities are often accompanied by deficits in perception and motor skills. These are addressed by the successful »learning in motion« program: elements from the fields of ergotherapy and psychomotorics are combined in a wholebody approach to learning. Activities (a sensory obstacle course, for example) are designed to compensate for deficits in perceptual skills and movement without drawing attention to them. In this way, kindergarten and primary school-aged children are given learning opportunities that are differentiated to meet their individual needs and are additionally fun,motivating, and promote concentration.

Target group:
Primary school teachers, caregivers, therapists, education specialists, interested parents
