Apology Bookmarks
This is a bookmark that teaches students how to apologize without having to overcomplicate the apology or not say enough. It also helps students resolve conflict on their own without getting the teacher involved.
Student Directed
Leave me a note
The “leave me a note” station serves as a valuable tool in the classroom to address varying communication needs among students. Providing a designated space for written communication, it not only helps manage excessive talking but also offers an avenue for quieter or more reserved students to express themselves comfortably.
“Flat Tire”
When the teacher or student says “Flat Tire” everyone says shhhhhhh and listens to whoever prompted the flat tire. This is a quick verbal interaction that is a fast and easy way to get students and everyone’s attention in the classroom.
Rollercoaster Brain Break
When students need a brain break, put on a rollercoaster simulation video. Have your students act in their seats like they are on a rollercoaster ride. This is a fun activity that gives your students an engaging but timely brain break that gives them a quick reset so they will be ready to learn.
Busy Box

Private Table

Roll a Brain Break
This Roll a Brain Break Activity gives you a range of activities for students to engage in to get their bodies moving and their brains re-engaged. You roll a 6-sided die and whatever number it lands on students have to correlate that number to the brain break with a similar number.
Classroom Drive-Thru
The classroom drive-thru is helpful because it keeps the movement around the classroom run smoothly without chaos happening. When there’s a structured line implemented for moving around the classroom in a certain area and direction, it helps prevent kids from running into each other, ripping over students desks/chairs, and prevents the classroom from becoming too crowed in one area. It forces students to learn how to be patient and wait for their turn as well.
