Brain breaks

Students attention spans range from 5 minutes to 20 minutes and I have always been looking for fun ways to 'take a break' from their learning; to help them re-focus and stay on task.

I have seen numerous ideas around on Pinterest and other teaching blogs, but I thought that the concept of a 'brain break' sounded good!

So I got some thick paddle pop sticks from the $2 shop, traced around them on some funky papers, glued them together and found an empty jar. Then I racked my brain and googled some fun breaks(some shorter, some longer than ones).

Hopefully my kiddies will enjoy the breaks!
