Brain breaks have been popular for quite some time now. We’ve learned that regularly incorporating short movement activities throughout the instructional day not only allows children to get their wiggles out, but it energizes them while increasing their ability to focus on the next learning activity as well. Just smack up one of these short clips on your board and get to steppin’! These clips are sure to get your students (and maybe even you) moving and grooving!
Tip: Pull up the videos privately before broadcasting them, as to avoid any questionable ads.
