The Conventional Method

An increasing number of children do not learn using the "Conventional Method" (workbooks, flashcards and lectures). There is a scientific reason for this.  This method delivers in serial order through  verbal media either in print or speech. Thus the  Conventional Method unintentionally shuts down the right side of the brain. 

Whole Brain Teaching

Movement of our body makes information flow from the left brain  to right and back again at lightning velocity.     Teaching to the whole brain. Total Physical Response has been found to be far more effective than the conventional method. Studies show that by physically involving the children in the learning process, children actually learn faster, retain more, drop out rates decrease by 90%, and it reduces stress (a major cause of learning disabilities) .

 Dr Amen has done some amazing research indicating that whole brain learning/ teaching strengthens the brain, and improves one's ability to learn.  The Kinesthetic Learner (hands on learners), children with ADD, ADHD, Aspergers, ext. learn better by using whole brain teaching. This game reaches more children, because it physically involves them in the learning process (whole brain teaching).

Start down the magical road to reading success with this adorable, easy to learn, board game which includes 336 static cling letters, fun activity cards, phonics books and motivating certificates. I loved the adaptability of the game for educators to be able to be an instructional decision maker, and address his/her own program’s standards for spelling, writing, language, and more."

"A question from teachers and administrators often arises when considering the purchase of an instructional game for their school. – “Can we purchase the Ring Around the Phonics game for our school if it is not on the state-adopted list? “Yes! According to Florida Statute 1006.(4)(B) up to 50 percent of the annual allocation may be used for the purchase of instructional materials, including library and reference books and nonprint materials, not included on the state-adopted list".
