Teaching Strategies:
Brain breaks are a fun way for students to take a mental “pause” and help their brains stay focused. Allowing students a few small breaks to let their brains relax, refocus, and renew works wonders! These 20 brain break cards are designed to either energize students or relax them. Cut out and laminate these 20 colorful cards, and then pull them out when you see mental exhaustion setting in - your students can engage in brain breaks before, during, or after activities to help refocus on their current or next task.
