Integrated Learning Kinesiology

"He's not performing as well as he can. He needs to concentrate more, pay more attention particularly in...[insert subject area or class]."

It's a conversation so many parents and teachers have had. But what if the issue isn't effort or willpower at all?

Before a child can access what's being taught, their body needs to be ready to learn — because all learning begins as sensorimotor experience.

Posture. Movement. Coordination. Sensory processing. These aren't separate from "real" learning — they're the foundation it's built on. It's the sensorimotor processes that help signal the brain to wire and fire for better learning and function.

When we understand and address the body-based learning processes, the teaching that follows tends to land more effectively.

From accommodations in the classroom to CURIOSITY ..and then to the realisation of possible resolutions.

This is what's possible with Body to Brain Learning@School
Available for schools in FNQ. Contact Integrating Thinking or myself for more details.

I love this quote from Karen Augustson, Principal of Djidi Djidi Aboriginal School in WA. They've been implementing the Body to Brain Learning @ School approach for a few years now.

Their story is a great one and we're super proud to have been a part of that journey for their school, teachers, and especially their students.

Can't beat these results and reports 🎉🎉💃

FNQ Principals and school leaders - This one is for you.

For my Far North Queensland network, here's something worth passing on if you know a school leader up this way.

I've spent years working across neurodevelopmental practice and education systems, and one pattern keeps showing up: the learning challenges schools spend the most energy on are often framed as a student who won't engage, or a teacher who needs to improve their practice. But sometimes neither is true. Rather, a student's nervous system that isn't developmentally ready for what's being asked of it in a teaching situation can't engage easily. That often looks like misbehaviour or disengagement. That's not blaming the child or the teacher. It's naming a mismatch, so it can be seen, named, and addressed.

I'm running a session on exactly this on August 4th in Cairns, with two Body to Brain Learning @ School Regional Facilitators, Terry Davidson and Nadine Vielle (Integrated Learning Kinesiology). If you're a Principal or school leader in FNQ, or know one who'd value a genuinely different perspective on this, I'd love to see them there. Tag/share this with someone it might be useful for.

Kids ignoring you when you ask them to do something...?
Are they really ignoring you or is something deeper going on perhaps?

If you haven't already picked up your July copy of What's On Tablelands please do and flip to page 16 for (my latest article) a neurological take on what may be truly happening for your kids when they seem to be ignoring or forgetting any little task you ask of them.

Liked your Patti Flynn, Soapmaker sample I was giving out in June? Artistree Gallery is stocking the full bars again as well as sampler packs.

I've always liked "Hope" - Fresh and rosy with a hint of lemon. "Hope might be pushed to the side for a moment while I enjoy "Integrity".

Encounter your new favourite!
