Brain Breaks

Brain Breaks are a practical application of research findings demonstrating that cognitive function can improve through movement, regardless of whether the movement is related to the academic subject matter. Brain Breaks are activities that can be implemented throughout the day as a transition from one lesson to another, or to break a lesson up when children start getting fidgety.

Essentially, Brain Breaks are activities that are:

  • Less than 5 minutes
  • Easy to implement with minimal set up or materials
  • Require children to get out of their seats to move
  • Involve every child

Some examples of brain breaks include stretching, cross-laterals, music and movement, quick games such as rock, paper, scissors, etc.

Check out the following examples of Brain Breaks:
