This workshop will review motor control, sensory processing, and exercise and their impact on developmental brain function and learning. We will discuss the components inherent to classroom readiness including attention, postural control and motor development. This course is appropriate for anyone working with children ages birth through primary education.
Upon completion, participants will be able to apply concepts to understand how motor control, sensory processing and exercise support learning readiness. Problem solving through demonstrations and simulations, you will learn how to create interventions to support positive participation for all learners.
In order to receive credit for 5 contact hours, participants will be required to complete a 1 hour assignment prior to the 4 hour webinar.
- Describe how exercise impacts brain function
- Identify how postural control, sensory processing and exercise contribute to behavior, learning and classroom participation
- Implement strategies to support learning throughout their day
