Benefits of Incorporating Movement into the Classroom

 

Students of all ages can benefit from moving more during the school day, and there are many moments when you can incorporate movement within the classroom. From dancing, going for walks, doing some stretches, and running in place. However, it is important that your school classroom is able to transform into a space easily that fosters movement and other fun activities. At Abax Kingfisher, we supply a range of mobile, lightweight, and stackable furniture that is ideal for classroom spaces that need to be changed at an instant.

 

Getting your students up and moving are found to provide great benefits, including:

• Better focus: Providing students with opportunities to move throughout the day can increase their ability to focus for certain amounts of time.
• Better health: As students move into their teen years, they tend to move less and less. Kids who get to move more during the day tend to be healthier, with their minds are clearer, hearts are stronger, and they can focus better.
• Happier students: Movement boosts mood, reduces stress, and helps students feel happier at school
