Happy 2024! The year is already shaping up to be a busy and productive year for us at Move2Learn. Our programming to help our students in Alexandria public schools feel and learn their best is well underway and continues to be a super important part of our students’ school days.
What we’re focused on this year
| We’re Inside the Classroom with our Active Seating Packages, signature Toolkits and Movement Challenges. The 2024 winter challenge is almost here! |
| We’re Outside the Classroom with clubs like yoga, dance, boxercise, running/walking, lacrosse, jump roping, overall movement and more. |
| We’re all about SEAL, Social, Emotional and Academic Learning, with 10 new lessons we call “Movement to Feel & Learn Your Best.” |
What else is happening
AND, we have another arrow in our quiver that we’re super excited about: Our new Measurement Survey that gives teachers a way to report back on their experience with our programs. The measurement experts at Magnolia Consulting guided us through the rigorous and exacting process to create a valid survey from which we’re already collecting valuable insights.
Here’s a sneak preview of the kinds of feedback we’re getting…
On Inside the Classroom
“My students will ask to use the Move2Learn Active Seating when they’re feeling tired or having trouble focusing. They go back to their seats when they feel more energized.”
On Outside the Classroom
“This is a great program for the students. They’re really engaged and really enjoy participating. Move2Learn provided a lot of support with equipment, supplies and programming.”
On SEAL
“My students need to move and the Move2Learn SEAL lessons make it easy to incorporate movement breaks. Identifying strong emotions is important, and the lessons have helped students handle them when they get in the way of learning.”
The feedback we get will inform everything we do—to make sure we’re always providing the most useful and effective programs.
