Workshops

 

All Big Muscles’ workshops are hands-on, brain compatable, multi-sensory, multi-modal and interactive.

 

Brain research shows:  The brain’s learning abilities are increased the more multi-sensory the environment becomes.  Students given a multi-sensory activity generate more than 50 percent more creative solutions on a problem-solving activity than students who are sujected a single sensory presentation.  Big Muscles Workshops incorporate multiple senses to boost memory retention and problem solving skills.

 

Our workshops incorporate high level, multiple-step processes using multiple skill sets that create many opportunities to address core subject area STAAR objectives.  Discover how to capitalize on this advantage and improve STAAR preformance!
