Keeping students actively engaged in marching around the classroom is an amazing idea. I would love to bring this in my classrooms since students are trying to fall asleep in the morning classes. It would let students to really engage with their classmates because they have to keep marching around the whole room.

Did you ever find a way to incorporate a strategy like this into your teaching practices? If so what did you do?

 I really think it is a great learning tool to have students use physical abilities/motion in learning. I believe it can help stimulate the connection of retaining information to memory by incorporating physical movement together. Awesome! Nice work!
