Raising Classroom Achievement with Music and Fitness Workshop
What impact does boredom have on a classroom? Tons! Don't let your students shut-down and turn-off to learning. This highly engaging workshop will examine powerful strategies and techniques to motivate and invigorate the learning process to anchor core concepts. During the one-day session, we will explore:
- How students anchor learning through their bodies with movement
- Why movement energizes and integrates the body and brain for optimal learning
- When movement facilitates cognition and reinforces academic concepts for better retrieval of memory and increased student achievement
- What movement activities makes learning "fun"
- Where to apply researched-based strategies
Why not take your academic classrooms and jump-start them with movement, action, music, and fun? When kids are engaged in the learning process, scores and fitness goes up and discipline problems go down.

"I have been working as an elementary school teacher in a small school district in New Mexico since 1995. My children have next to nothing and my district offers little support in the way of resources for students and classrooms. The Grant Experts wrote a Teaching American History grant for my school, which resulted in a $900,000 investment in instructional technology, teacher training, and resource materials."
"Deb Fordyce (a member of The Grant Experts' team) has been writing grants for my network of charter schools here in North Carolina for the past 4 years. She has single handedly raised over $3 million dollars for my schools."
"Thank you, thank you, thank you. My students now have laptop computers. My school library was just upgraded with cutting edge technology and we are now able to pay for a librarian to work 40 hours a week. All of this was because of the Grant Experts' free grant writing services."
"I can not talk more proudly of the Grant Experts. They were able to get my district nearly $300,000 in Improving Literacy Through School Libraries funding in addition to over $950,000 from the Alaska Native Education Grant program."

"The Grant Experts raised over $3 million dollars for my schools. This includes the 21st Century Community Learning Centers grant, the federal Teaching American History Grant, and the federal Foreign Language Assistance Program grant. Thank you, Deb Fordyce and the staff of the Grant Experts for all of your assistance."
"These people at the Grant Experts understand that these funds and resources are for children and they will do whatever it takes to write award winning proposals."
"There is no way that our district would ever be able to pay for the high quality grant writing services of the Grant Experts. It is an extremely helpful and professional grant writing program that they offer to schools. I urge you to try them out."
"The Grant Experts wrote our grants at no out-of-pocket cost to my district. It was the best decision I ever made and the children thank me every day."
