In this episode of Tier 1 Interventions, Cheri and Jonily unpack the unexpected power of the Geo Board. This tool blends occupational therapy and mathematics to close academic and non-academic gaps in the Tier 1 classroom.\nYou’ll learn how the Geo Board supports shape sense, measurement, number fluency, and executive functioning, why precision versus accuracy matters, and what happens when kids struggle to switch from vertical to horizontal processing. Additionally, Cheri demonstrates the Handstand Flip—a simple movement hack that engages the whole brain and prepares students to learn.\n🎯 Topics include:\nMeasurement as a gateway to number sense\nGeo Board strategies from K to Algebra\nMath standards alignment across grade levels\nNon-academic interventions that change classroom behavior\nThese insights help ALL learners succeed\n🔗 Find the full Geo Board training module: https://disabilitylabs.com\n***************************************************************************\nBOOKS\nMaking Mathineers on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Making-Mathineers-Transformational-Experiences-Conceptual-ebook/dp/B08NFCZ64K\nHandwriting Brain Body DISconnect Digital Version: https://disabilitylabs.com/courses/hwbbd\n On Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Handwriting-Brain-Body-DisConnect-techniques-ebook/dp/B07N1XB1G7\nBoth books are also available in paperback and hardcover versions.
