Using the approach based on a Harvard study that found when the whole body is involved, the number of brain cells brought to the learning activity doubles, the author offers over one hundred kinesthetic activities. These are organized by content area and include number of players, objective and procedures, and nonfiction reading suggestions. Many activities are in game and/or dramatic presentation format. Students are asked to solve real life problems, create circle stories, create original excuses using science vocabulary, assume the role of eyewitness to historical events, and much, much more.
