Week 1 in the Classroom
Movement is a very important aspect of a child's life. With the limited time we have during our school day, movement breaks within the classroom that are organized and get kids active is so important. There are many reasons why movement is important for students, some of the reasons are: it imporves focus and attention, enhances learning and memory, supports physical health, reduces behavioral issues and fosters social skills and cooperation.
I have created different slides for you to use. Each week will be a different group of slides that I will update. It will be limited equipment and age appropriate for our school
Here are some resources to help if you want to create your own classroom movement breaks:
