Brain Breaks for Kindergarten

Brain breaks are an effective way to increase focus, support self-regulation, get the wiggles out and boost a child's learning in the classroom (or at home). Students are expected to learn a lot in school. In addition to academics, they are constantly learning how to interact with others and be students. Brain breaks are perfect to give their brains a little recentering break and a chance to get their bodies moving. I have found it very beneficial to incorporate quick, mindful, physical and mental check-ins with my students as a part of our daily classroom routine.
