鍛煉不僅有益于孩子的身體,還有益于他們的大腦,以及他們在學(xué)校的表現(xiàn)。
《芝加哥論壇報》報道了伊利諾伊大學(xué)厄巴納-香檳分校教授查爾斯·希爾曼的研究成果。希爾曼的團隊發(fā)現(xiàn):“參加60分鐘課后鍛煉計劃的7至9歲的兒童,比不鍛煉的兒童更能集中注意力,更快地處理信息。”這意味著鍛煉可以提高孩子的注意力、專注力和學(xué)習(xí)效率。
運動更多的孩子比沒有運動的孩子學(xué)習(xí)得更快、更好,這證明運動對大腦很重要。
Why Gym Class Should Be Required(Excerpt)

Exercise benefits not only a child's body, but also his or her brain and performance in school.
The Chicago Tribune,which reported an article from Charles Hillman, a professor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign,says that “Hillman's team found that children aged 7 through 9 who participated in a 60-minute after-school exercise program had better focus and processed information more quickly than children who did not exercise”. This means that exercise improves attentiveness, focus and effectiveness of the children's learning.
Children who exercise more are able to learn quicker and better than the kids who don't, which proves that exercise is important for the brain.
