| Why
this site...
One
goal of the web site is to offer a maximum of pedagogy
that is not expensive
What can we do
that
is simple,
interesting,
useful,
fast,
and
inexpensive
to make a better preparation for children and adolescents
for learning and school education, while in the
meantime we are preparing them for a more integrated
adult life, with more specalized work possibilities.
1-
In the pedagogic part :
You will find all that a child needs to learn.
All the exercises are presented in a progressive
order for the students , and you will be easily
able to follow their evolution.
All the exercises are there including the ones which
especially, greatly help adolescents.
If you are teachers, educators,
parents or volunteers, you will benefit from this
web site of pedagogy and exercises that will help
you in your educative mission with children.
For some students this will be
a discovery of some base for learning, and for others
it will offer a varied reinforcement of the same
base of skills for reading and writing.
Remember that the web site also
has interesting and beneficial exercises for the
older students.
This gradual approach will allow
you to go much further with the students because
you will follow all the basic skills for learning.
The first exercises are very beneficial
for the children who are temporarily slower to learn,
and they are also a reinforcement for the other
students. They allow all children to learn more
efficiently and rapidly.
Some exercises are especially useful for adolescents,
including those who are entering trades, because
they prepare them for a better integrated life into
the working world.

About Us »
you will find the different steps of the Guatemalan
experience, the ways in which we experimented and
validated the pedagogic approach, and those pedagogic
exercises.
We talk about Educational Kinesiology
and we know its advantage for reeducation, and of
the benefits of these exercises for the children.
REMEMBER :
It is not necessary for you to know Educative Kinesiology,
you just have to follow the pedagogic steps, and
help the children benefit from those basic exercises
in psychomotricity, which increase their learning
at many levels. This is sufficient to enable them
to become better scholars and to prepare them for
an easier, and more balanced working life.
For me, as a specialist in education,
the project was very enriching and was going along
with my research work and the work of both foundations
with children. We hope that this experience we had
with the school where 38% of the children were dyslexic,
and where the majority of the children in the school
were very weak in psychomtricity and laterality,
can aid other research projects in education.
The site is in three languages,
which for us was essential because we wished to
make accessible a basic pedagogy in Spanish, because
it will be spread in Central and South America.
In these countries, the stimulation for learning
at a young age is not available.
In these poor regions, one
of the objectives was to make available and affordable
an essential basic pedagogy, sometimes
without cost.
We have to remember that to develop the sequential
order costs nothing, and according to the psychologists
around the world, it is essential for learning.
Sequential order helps in advanced studies and for
workers in specialized trades.
One of our goals was
also to give clear and well structured pedagogic
instruction for the many volunteers with insufficient
preparation to work with children in different countries.
Another vision of ours
is to set up an open web site so
that educators will be able to send us interesting
pedagogic material or ideas for facilitating children’s
education especially in third world countries.

N.B. We are sorry that some
pictures of exercises are not perfect. With the
hurricane Stan one part of the school in San Marcos
has been destroyed. Then we had lost ours originals.
This will be correct as soon as possible.
