No more studying for the test and forgetting the information one day later. It provides brain break ideas at your fingertips. Now finding an appropriate activity to reset students' minds is a quick and easy! B- Build Content knowledge R- Refocus Attention E- Energize the classroom A- Activate Growth Mindset K- Connection within the brain hemispheres and between students. Additionally the handbook explains how to choose and implement brain rests during the lesson. There are also two new features included in the handbook. The first feature is cognitive activation exercises to use at the start of class. These activities get neurons talking to each other before the lesson. Students are engaged immediately. The second feature explains the reason for off task behavior caused by cognitive overload and amygdala hijack. All behavior is communication from the brain. Understanding that most causes of distraction are not disobedience but brain issues, helps teachers and students to quickly restore thinking and return to learning tasks.
