Students need regular brain breaks to help them regulate their behavior. Throughout a school day, students are constantly required to stay in control of their behavior, complete their work, focus on instruction, and participate. That’s a lot of self-regulation for young students.

It can be very helpful for teachers to use activities and strategies throughout the day that help students regulate. One of these strategies is brain breaks. These are short, simple activities that teachers can do during transitions and as a regular part of the schedule.

Not all brain breaks are created equal. They should be responsive to the students’ behavior. Sometimes, you need activities that will help students wake up after they have been sitting for too long. Other times, you need something to settle everyone back down after an exciting activity. Sometimes, you need to get everyone in the learning and thinking mindset.

This resource has three kinds of brain breaks: Energizing, Calming, and Focusing. They will help you be more responsive to the students in front of you.
