Brain Break – Tier 3

Brain breaks are developed and implemented in a classroom to help students regain focus and concentration.” – Chelsea Vrabel
“When we take a brain break, it refreshes our thinking and helps us discover another solution to a problem or see a situation through a different lens…The brain break actually helps to incubate and process new information.” – Dr. Lori Desautels, Edutopia
“Breaks should be short enough that students can successfully re-engage in the content following the exercise.” – Brain Breaks, Goolbook App
