Review :
"Brain breaks are an essential tool in maintaining student engagement and facilitating effective learning, and I believe this book will be a valuable resource for educators seeking to enrich their classroom practices." Dr. Taylan Celtik, International School Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany, MYP/DP Mathematics Teacher & Curriculum Leader ISS, DP Mathematics Moderator, International Baccalaureate, 25 years "The 'May I have your attention, please?' section is great. I loved the line 'Being present requires training the mind to turn off all the notifications! There are so many great ways to connect kids and refresh their minds in this book. My fourth graders loved the Three-Headed Expert, and the Long-Lost Friends breaks. I can't wait to get this book in the hands of my teaching peers." Tami Koske, Granville Intermediate School, Granville, Ohio, Grade 4, 25 years "What an insightful guide to brain breaks tailored for educators who grasp the neuroscience behind them. Packed with personal anecdotes, this book offers a refreshing perspective on incorporating brain breaks into the classroom. A must-read for teachers seeking a deeper understanding of how to optimize student engagement and learning." Niamh O'Donoghue, B.Ed., MSc Mental Health and Wellbeing in Education, International School of Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany, MYP Language and Literature/PHE teacher, 10 years "After reading this book, I talked with my kindergarteners about how their brains need a rest sometimes. We discussed how our transition activities and brain breaks give their brains a release from thinking. Now, my students are asking for brain breaks when they need them. They are noticing which breaks work the best for them, too. Brain breaks are changing my young learners." Grace Rodrigues, International School Shanghai, Shanghai,
