Have you ever had a day, at the end of the day you stopped and reflected and just thought, “wow, that lesson did not go well, my kids were disengaged, I am not sure if they learned anything from it, and they were so squirrely through the entire thing?” Well, if you are a teacher and you answered ‘no’ to these questions, I know you are lying. Now stop, and reflect on this. Did your children get a chance to move their bodies, calm their bodies, or adjust their thinking? Your lesson could have been a gold star lesson but if your children did get the opportunity to do these things, it is developmentally appropriate for them to be disengaged, unable to retain information, and disruptive. My research will prove the concept of performance in your children if you find the short time to implement a brain break during or before your lesson. My hopes are for you to see the benefits and find the four minutes in your day to add this so you can get out of your students the expectation you set for them. So if you are looking for ideas and ways you can implement brain breaks into your daily schedule to see gold star performance in your children, come join us in doing so!
