Research
The Gymathstics team is currently conducting research as part of a masters study. We have trained 2 grade R teachers and provided them with Gymathstics Resources. They will use the Gymathstics program over 40 weeks.
Research question
How does the Gymathstics Program influence a childs’ learning and understanding of mathematical concepts in the early years?
We are going to publish the research on the website at the end of the 24 month study.
Other interesting research studies which motivate teaching through movement and multi-sensory learning experiences
