Ready for a Brain Break
.
If you're not on spring break YET, you may find yourself looking for new ideas for shaking things up to help students refocus
.
These ideas from @melbournepypteachers are fanstatic for elementary school, and can be adjusted for older grades. We like the idea of using popsicle sticks to choose break activities randomly. Swipe ➡️➡️➡️ for tons of fun and quick ideas.
.
♀️ When your students have been working hard and need a break (or when they’re just having trouble concentrating), what are your favorite brain breaks to use as an intermission, transition, or just a little treat?
My best friend, a high school teacher, and I love pandas— she got these awesome, HUGE coloring pages for each of our classrooms! I think it’ll make a great brain break activity! #pandas #brainbreak #coloringfun .
Check the tag for more information! She got the posters from https://debbielynn.net/products/big-coloring-posters .

This set of 100 task cards has over 250 quick and easy, but active games, movements, yoga poses, and activities to help 1st - 5th graders get the wiggles out! Adding movement regularly can lead to better behavior, mood, attitude, and even better learning! I like to rotate these with GoNoodle, which is also tons of fun! Click on the link in my profile to take a peek! #brainbreak #elementaryschool
⏳ Brain breaks are quick, whole-class activities that help students re-energize the brain to begin focusing again. They normally incorporate physical activities and are taken in regular intervals during classroom instruction. We can use them to increase attention and productivity and reduce frustration. .
On the following websites you can find a great deal of brain breaks that combine the use of songs, yoga poses and choreographies.
1️⃣ Go Noodle
2️⃣ Kidz Bop
3️⃣ Cosmic Kids
4️⃣ Move to learn MS
5️⃣ The learning station

❓Do you use brain breaks in class? .

Brain Break 008✨ Love
.
There's a light in my soul. A fire I can't control. Can you let yourself be loved ? Can you let yourself be loved ?
.
Wanting love and letting yourself be loved are two different things and feelings. Know that you are an incredible human who is worthy of love and being loved. You first - love yourself first ✨.
What are these kids doing laying on the floor?! Taking a brain break! Lazy 8 on a paper taped to the underside of their desks! It integrates both hemispheres of the brain, strengthens wrists and shoulders, changes the visual field and creates new neural pathways! 5 mins to set up and 5 mins to execute. ⠀

Brain Break 010 - Gratitude ✨
.
Every day is a gift and every day there is something to be grateful for. ✨
State 5 things you are grateful for as you breathe deeply with your eyes closed. Feel the energy of gratitude in your body. Do this each day and notice how you feel. Notice how you shift.

Today I am grateful for connection. Connecting can happen in many ways - but I acknowledge the power of the digital world and how we can go from online to in person. Shoutout to @themindfulmonk for planting a seed that led me to run a sound bath workshop in Kelowna at @tandavayoga ! It was so great meeting you in person and working with the wonderful Tandava community! ✌✨
.
I am grateful.
