Abstract
In this article, we examine how to integrate movement into teaching. Through action research in four Danish primary schools, teachers and a researcher collaboratively developed movement activities in teaching. The result of the research is a didactical model for Enactive Movement Integration (EMI) containing six categories of bodily practices: to mime, dramatise, gesticulate, shape, imitate, and sense. These can provide pupils with sensory-motor, affective, and intersubjective experiences with the subject matter. We conclude that this didactical model can help teachers plan and conduct Movement Integration (MI) in a way that embraces the pupils’ embodied subjectivity and enactive engagement with the subject matter.
