I believe the children learn through movement: a calm body calms a mind and makes it ready to learn. My OT sessions are full of learning, movement and fun. We focus on the sensory system, integrating primitive reflexes and building up strength to help every child reach their maximum potential.
Children’s minds aren’t separate from their bodies – both need to work together for a child to thrive. In many ways, our children are better prepared than others for the work of the future, where the totality of their senses will be needed to come together to take in their environment, process information, and produce innovative solutions.
At Gesher Yehuda Yeshiva, we work with children with learning differences — bright children who struggle in a mainstream setting. We offer small, structured learning environments designed to meet individual needs. We are an academic program with highly trained special education teachers and therapists. Since 1994, our alumni have gone on to college, careers, and successful lives. All students deserve the education that best fits their needs.
