How TAG helps kids with ADHD

🏃‍♂️📚 T.A.G. + ADHD = Learning in Motion!

Why It Works

ADHD brains crave movement, rhythm, and novelty

Exercise boosts focus, memory, and mood

Multisensory learning = more pathways to success

🔁 T.A.G. Strategies That Help
🔧
Spell while moving    Boosts working memory + attention

Chant syllables    Builds rhythm, recall, and self-regulation

Balance while decoding    Enhances focus + coordination

Track with gestures    Supports visual + kinesthetic learners

🧠 Brain + Body = Better Learning
Movement activates the cerebellum, which supports:

Attention

Emotional regulation

Executive function

T.A.G. turns academic drills into athletic flow:

Kids spell, chant, and move in sync

Builds confidence, stamina, and mastery
T.A.G. blends phonics, fitness, and fun to create a learning environment that’s:

Multisensory: Engages visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic pathways

Rhythmic: Uses repetition and cadence to build memory and regulation

Physiologically activating: Boosts dopamine and norepinephrine through movement

Emotionally supportive: Builds confidence through physical and academic success

This kind of integrated therapy is “vital” because it:

Cross-trains the brain and body—especially helpful for ADHD learners who benefit from physical stimulation

Targets executive function—like working memory, impulse control, and attention

Promotes self-regulation—through rhythm, coordination, and structured movement

✅ Why It Works for ADHD
Kids with ADHD often struggle in traditional sit-and-listen environments. T.A.G.’s model flips that script:

TAG teaches syllables through motion, helping kids chant, spell, and retain patterns

TAG uses athletic drills to reinforce academic skills, making learning feel like play

TAG fosters emotional resilience, helping kids shift from frustration to mastery
