Description: Discover how teachers can motivate students and help them retain more knowledge longer by using sight, sound, smell, taste, touch, and movement in the classroom. In this first-ever guide to multisensory learning, author Lawrence Baines explains how teachers in every grade and subject can change curriculum from a series of assignments to a series of multisensory experiences that engage more students and make learning more memorable and fun. Samples of student work and grading criteria are included to help you make sure that your multisensory approaches lead to specific standards-based learning objectives.
