The Missing Link in the Classroom

A teacher leads a group of young children in a classroom movement activity; text reads "Intentional Movements," highlighting the missing link to classroom readiness.

Every classroom has its movers—the ones who wiggle, twist, stretch, and sway their way through the day. Rather than asking them to “sit still,” what if we honored that movement as a language of learning?

In this featured article, Intentional Movements for the Mover in Your Classroom, I share simple, brain-based strategies that help educators transform movement into meaningful engagement. You’ll explore how intentional physical organization supports mental organization, focus, and emotional readiness—whether you teach early childhood, Montessori, or movement-based programs.
