Abstract: Teachers and students alike cannot escape today’s stressful lifestyle. As a teacher of English as a foreign language I always try to look for activities and resources that give my students, and me, a break from the routine. I started looking for something innovative to do in my classes, and I learned about brain breaks and their purpose in education. Join me in this three-hour session to learn about this common practice in American classrooms which has proven to be highly effective in ELL. Be ready to take a brain break yourself!
