The learning connection
The embodied cognition principle indicates that learning through movement strengthens memory retention. When children roll the dice and act out rights, they connect physical actions with concepts, making understanding deeper and more memorable.
Try it with your learner
1. Create a large game board with 6 squares, each representing a human right. 2. Write down each right on a separate square (like 'Freedom of Speech'). 3. Use a dice to take turns rolling and moving the game piece on the squares. 4. When landing on a square, read out the right and discuss why it matters. 5. Share a situation where that right is applicable in real life. 6. Conclude by reflecting on how these rights help everyone live better.
