Before I discuss three different ways of using movement in teaching, especially teaching
students with SLD I would like to start with discussing certain features the three methods have in
common. Namely, all three treat movement as a useful alternative in teaching/learning process,
all three use science, especially neurology, to prove their claims, e.g. connected with SLD issue,
and some of their ideas come from alternative medicine. Although, there is no need for a teacher
to be highly knowledgeable of scientific matters, it proves to be useful to get acquainted with
a few terms and basic facts. These terms and facts are often used and discussed in all kinds of
literature connected with teaching methods. The following chapter shows, how the facts and
terms can be wrongly interpreted, misused or simplified. As there is a vast range of literature
discussing the issue I tried to use only those, which seem to be relevant for teachers and/or
parents and have real scientific basis.
