How We Use Movement to Help Students in the Classroom

Movement is essential to the development of young children. They know this instinctively, as you have probably guessed as you watch your preschooler zoom across the room for the eighth time in two minutes. What you may not know is just how movement aids in a child’s development and that those benefits go beyond physical growth.

Types of Movement

While unrestrained running across a backyard is undeniably good for children, at Tumblebees Learning Center we go beyond that joyous expression of freedom. Our preschool teachers integrate movement into the overall learning experience so that the children learn to move with more control. Basic tumbling and sports skills are two of the ways we teach children to use their bodies, along with moving to the rhythms of a variety of music.

Social and Cognitive Benefits

Studies have shown that regular physical activity for preschoolers aids in social and cognitive development. We see these results every day in our Tumblebees Learning Center classes. Movement helps young children to control and express emotions. Responding to the rhythms of music offers opportunities for children to count and describe the patterns that appear in the song. All of this promotes the growth of school readiness for all preschool ages by increasing learning capacity and the ability to concentrate.

Physical Benefits

All types of movement help preschool bodies build strength and develop healthy muscles, bones and joints. In turn, coordination improves so that children can participate successfully in games and sports as they move through elementary school and on into higher levels of education. These benefits are built into our curriculum that includes plenty of gymnastics and other sports skills. An extra bonus is that strength and coordination boost a child’s self-confidence as he finds he can keep up with his friends.

Overall, children who are physically active on a regular basis experience better health and miss less school than their more sedentary peers. In addition, an early foundation in the pleasure of movement and exercise will continue to keep them healthier throughout their adult lives. Too many children, even the very young, spend too much time focused on electronic devices. At Tumblebees Learning Center we give them the chance to experience life in the active lane.

Why Choose When Your Child Can Do Both?

We all know that as parents making decisions becomes second nature. We don’t hesitate on the basics, like brushing teeth, eating vegetables, and completing homework. However, choosing extracurricular activities can be a bit trickier as household budgets and limited time get in the way. What if your daughter loves moving to music, but she also has dreams of Olympic gymnastics glory. How do you decide? How do you tell her she has to choose one or the other?

Dancenastics

We have a solution: Dancenastics. This popular class is just what it sounds like, a combination of dance and gymnastics activities. Students split each one-hour session evenly between learning the fundamentals of jazz dance and practicing gymnastics skills on the beam, vault, bars, and trampoline. This makes it an ideal environment for your young dancer/athlete to try out both disciplines. She may make a clear choice right away or switch back and forth from week to week. However, chances are that after participating for a year in this class, she’ll have a better idea of which one is her favorite. If she still can’t choose, another year of Dancenastics is always an option.

Benefits

Participation in these classes offers all the benefits of our regular dance and gymnastics classes. Your child will learn about taking turns and team spirit, as she encourages her classmates to try a new gymnastics skill. She’ll also gain problem-solving abilities and the self-confidence that comes with finding successful solutions. Studies have shown that children who participate in dance or gymnastics on a regular basis not only perform well in school, they gain a love of physical activity that will help keep them healthy throughout their lives.

Class Details

Dancenastics is available for three separate age groups: Preschool (3 to 4 years old), Beginner/Advanced Beginner (5 to 7 years old/Kindergarten through 2nd grade), and School Age (7 to 11 years old/3rd through 5th grade). Students are required to have a solid-colored leotard and black, split-sole jazz short boots. As an added bonus, students are also eligible to participate in our year-end Spring Recital!

One additional benefit of participation in Dancenastics is that after your daughter decides which activity she prefers, she can move into either gymnastics or dance classes right here at Tumblebees.
