Smart Moves by Carla Hannaford
Smart Moves: Why Learning Is Not All in Your Head
A well rounded book going into a reasonable amount of detail on a range of subjects that effect learning and brain development. It covers details on the brain’s inner workings; emotions; how movement effects learning; stress; the vestibular and the effect it has on learning disorders; the effects of labelling children and hyperactivity.
The illustrations and photos are the books weakest points and the author’s writing style sometimes isn’t to my taste but this is compensated by a good index and comprehensive references to source material.
