We GoNoodle, Do You?
GoNoodle is a website where you can sign up for a free account and use Brain Breaks for your students. I use the calming brain breaks for after PE when we are all a little wild and need to calm down and FOCUS! It’s also great at the end of the day when we all just need some quiet fun.
I love the motivating/energizing brain breaks for Fridays when we are in the middle of all our testing and need to get the wiggles out, wake up, and get motivated! Movement energizes and allows students to focus…it’s a great way to transition between activities.
My kids love them, they get so excited when it is time to have a “break.” On a personal note, my son, Jack is a kid who needs LOTS of breaks throughout the day and this has been perfect for him when we are trying to power through his homework! Jack struggles with focusing and GoNoodle helps him to get energized and re-focus. So GoNoodle isn’t just for classroom use, I use it at home and I think it would be great for homeschooling folks, too! =)

I teach middle school special education but, I still have a few students that love this! IT is such a great resource for teachers to provide appropriate breaks for students who need to calm down or be rewarded for doing their work!
