ABC Pathways Mat Figure 8  Package

About Our ABC Pathways Package

Movement activities on the ABC Pathways are endless and allow the students to learn the letters of the alphabet kinesthetically. Walking the ABC Pathways Mat, the students are able to kinesthetically trace each letter of the alphabet, while strengthening gross motor skills, eye tracking, and cross lateralization - 3 foundations critical to learning.

Our ABC Pathways Package is designed for:

The ABC Pathways Mat Package is designed to prepare our students brains to be ready for learning in the classroom. The patented design works to relax and refocus the brain giving the child a chance to strengthen their self regulation skills. As research shows, a child acting out is a child calling out for help to cope with their current emotional state. Walking the ABC Pathways Mat creates a meditative rhythm that works to calm the brain waves and soothe the child. The movement is designed to help the child reset and refocus. The ABC Pathways Mat is used in Action Based Learning Labs, classrooms, hallways, and libraries to give the student an opportunity to practice self regulation.

Integrating Movement with Academics in the ABL Lab

To start, students will work only on balance by moving the marble through the figure 8 and waves on the board. As basic movements are mastered, progressions can be added to introduce academic content. Student's can work on teacher provided content with a partner using flash cards or from the smart board. 

Breathing Techniques Wall Graphics Set

Students need tools to learn to self-manage their desired learning state. Learning and proper responses to environmental cues, such as how to be part of a group, prepares students to react more appropriately. Being aware of how our bodies and brains work together can be used to calm down or energize appropriately.

Not only does the respiration rhythm synchronize activity in brain regions involved in emotion and memory, it can also affect people's performance on tasks involving emotion and memory.
