Abstract

The purpose of this project is to validate how 1) Dennison’s Brain Gym movements activate 2) Temporal Sampling Framework (TSF) and phonology 3) increased academic fluency. Students aged 5-12 from three different SES groups—1600 per group—are from St Louis districts. Groups include 1) students with learning differences/average or gifted IQ. 2) Control groups have students without learning differences/average IQ 3) and students without learning differences/gifted IQ. Testing occurs outside school hours in a homework help center with occupational therapy (i.e. homework/movement), speech and language services (i.e. homework/audiology). We hope to find improved academic scores expected after Brain Gym movements and the autoregressor studies verify data. This will build on 1) prevention/intervention techniques 2) meta-analysis of learning differences a) movement/TSF functions underlying Dyslexia/learning differences b) auditory-specific and occupational therapy movement exercises c) more effective phonological screeners—infants through adulthood, and English speakers/native languages.
