Unfortunately for our learners, classrooms have become "sit and get". This leads to pooled blood in the buttocks and legs, creating depression of brain attention, function, and learning capacity. Research shows incorporating physical activity and exercise throughout the school day makes learners more focused on learning and less fidgety; thus improving on task behavior and reducing time redirecting for class management. According to John Ratey, author of Spark, exercise is "Miracle Gro for the brain" because of its role in stimulating nerve growth factors. This improves memory, concentration; and as a result, children develop a positive outlook and disposition. The brain is stimulated and naturally learns through the movement of its own body.
