Discover the top 8 podcasts, YouTube channels, and newsletters dedicated to the Pyramid of Learning and bottom-up approach to child development and education.
The Pyramid of Learning, developed by occupational therapist Kathleen Taylor and special educator Maryann Trott in 1991, is a foundational framework for understanding child development. It illustrates how academic learning, daily living activities, and behavior all grow and develop from a strong sensory foundation.
The bottom-up approach emphasizes building strong foundational skills (sensory processing, primitive reflex integration, motor development) before addressing higher-level skills (academic learning, social skills, complex reasoning). These resources provide expert guidance on implementing this evidence-based approach.
