    Re: Brain Gym Method?, USA

    Hi Maria, I went to the local library in my town and borrowed music to assist me with brain gym in my classroom. At that time I did not know that there were CD's I could purchase but I was able to use the library materials for an extended period. The pieces on the audio tape were very animated. There was some talking, asking the kids to imagine they were animals (pretend you are as tall as a giraffe, stretch, stretch, stretch with the accompanying music to get them in a whimsical mood). They had a piece with a clownish accompaniment and the kids would mimic clown actions, they would also follow directions to get as small as they could or run on the spot as fast as they could, tip toe and be as silent as ever or blow imaginary bubbles, pretend you are a magician etc. It was a range of activities and musical pieces that exposed the young learners to much in the way of movement and music. They totally loved it. At the end of that tape was a classical piece that allowed them to relax and even pretend to sleep with introductions to the composers etc. I do suggest you get into it for early learners because they will appreciate it very much. I am sorry I cannot help you much further in the way of telling you what you could locate in your target language. But that was my experience with Brain Gym. Try to research on the Internet as much as you can and see if you can source any materials there. All the best and let me know how it goes.

    Hi Opal, could you tell me more. From where should I begin to understand more? Consider that I'm Italian. I never found something in my language about this method. I teach in a primary school and I'm sure that my students will be very interested in. Maria

    I have used this model before in my elementary class and the students loved it. They were truly awakened and were ready to learn and engage their minds once the exercise was through. All the best! Opal Georgia, USA >
