Brain Gym is a series of simple movements that improve the exercises of whole brain learning. The different types of movements are proven to make all types of learning easer and improve the student's academic skills. The movement developed by Brain Gym allows individuals to access parts of the brain that they previously weren't able to use. The purpose of this research project is gather information about Brain Gym and its use in the classroom. The information gathered from this research project has been developed into a curriculum for use with students who have been diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorders.
