Mat Man Research

A 2006-2007 study conducted in Green Bay, Wisconsin confirms classroom findings…

Children who do Mat Man activities—building, drawing, singing—are better at developing readiness skills and retaining lessons learned. The study further demonstrates that the Mat Man multisensory strategies, compared to more traditional classroom methods, are especially effective for young children. Working with Mat Man, children engage in an enjoyable activity that allows them to experiment and gain confidence with pre-writing skills.
