Energizers!, K-6

To learn well, children need movement breaks throughout the school day. Energizers offer a great way to weave those breaks into the day without disrupting scheduled lessons. In fact, these two to three minutes of playful moving, laughing, and chanting or singing promote more and more productive learning.

All 88 energizers whether old favorites with new twists or the author's own lively originals are easy to learn and teach. No music training required!
