Brain Breaks

You may have heard from your child that first grade is tiring...busy....hard...and FUN!  As the academic intensity increases from that of Kindergarten, students are needing to move in between lessons and activities.   Brain breaks incorporate short movement activities into our day to allow children to get their wiggles out and get their brain energized.  This helps students focus and refresh their brain for the next learning lesson in their day.  INQUIRE with your child what their favorite movement break has been this year.  Head to the actual blog to see a video example of one of the many brain breaks we completed today!
