Brain Breaks

After long periods of class time, students have the tendency to get restless. Many educators believe students need movement and activity in order to stay engaged in their lessons. This is where the idea of brain breaks come into play. Brain breaks give students the opportunity to be active, get to know each other, and refresh their minds. These breaks usually only last a few minutes with minimal preparation on the teacher's part.

In this blog, we will share a brain break idea. Each idea should have directions of how to conduct the brain break and the appropriate grade level or age range.
