[Ohiogift] Keep active to learn

[Nancy Jamison]

Friends:

As we often focus on keeping students almost immobile during the course of
the day, we might be reminded that the *active *student very well could be
a better learner. That's the gist of a new article in the New York Times:
https://www.nytimes.com/2017/03/21/well/family/why-kids-shouldnt-sit-still-in-class.html

We adults forget that for most young people, "squirming" through the day
can tap off excess energy and help the student achieve better results in
the classroom.

Sincerely,
Nancy Jamison
