Movement Breaks for the Classroom

Today on the podcast I’m talking all about movement breaks for the classroom. We love use to use movement breaks because they help give my students a break and get them moving. However, there are also loads of other benefits that come from having movement breaks. I get a lot of questions sent to me through social media and my email asking about movement breaks. Some of the most common questions that I receive are; What are movement breaks? Why should I be using movement breaks? When should I use them? Who are they for? Are my students too old? Where can I find resources to use for movement breaks? And I’ve spent a lot of time over the years replying to all of these emails and helping you all out. That’s when it hit me – if I’m receiving this amount of questions about movement breaks – there’s probably thousands of other teachers who have the same questions! And that’s when I decided to make this podcast episode. So, today on the podcast, I’m going to be sharing about the movement breaks that I use, where you can find them and why you should be using them. Mentioned in the Podcast Movement Break Flashcards Yoga Breaks Shake Your Sillies Out Stand Up, Sit Down Jump Shake and Move Count to 100 I use all of these and my students have always loved them!
