Sport stacking challenges the brain, gives immediate feedback and provides physical activity, three things necessary for brain development.
Jean Blaydes Madigan, Neurokinesiologist,
Founder of Action Based Learning

Stackademics provides the perfect movement center for a classroom. The Stackademics® Classroom Activity Guide provides a variety of activities and worksheets to energize bodies and brains. Students can record and graph their best stacking times, practice patterning and sequencing through Color Stacking, test their reaction skills with Rapid Fire, challenge their math skills with Count Stackula, and add a little fitness through Stack ‘n Stretch, Windmill Stacking or Stack Dance.

Movement in the classroom

Stackademics extends the brain-energizing best of sport stacking into the classroom. Proven benefits include improved hand-eye coordination, focus, activation of both sides of the body/brain, dexterity, and cross-lateral movement. All important to recharge the brain and bolster student performance.

Sport stacking is a fun and positive way to create a short physical activity break that translates into improved attention span, classroom behavior and academic achievement. It’s a hands-on activity that can be done in a small space, is easy to learn, appeals to both boys and girls, and is a strong motivator for all ages to practice and improve.
