๐Ÿ’ก Teacher Tip Tuesday | Episode 2: My Learners Canโ€™t Sit Still!

Itโ€™s the first Tuesday of the month, which means itโ€™s time for another Teacher Tip from Teacher Tracy! ๐Ÿ‘ฉ๐Ÿพโ€๐Ÿซโœจ

This month, weโ€™re focusing on learner movement and engagement. Instead of seeing movement as a distraction, letโ€™s use it with purpose to help learners refocus, re-energise and stay engaged. ๐Ÿง โšก

Try incorporating:
โœจ Short, active brain breaks
โœจ Clear and positive focus routines
โœจ Lessons broken into manageable chunks
โœจ Classroom jobs that keep learners involved
โœจ Purposeful movement that supports learning

Our focus for this month: Give learners opportunities to move, focus and learn! ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’ก

Save this post and make purposeful movement a focus in your classroom this month. ๐Ÿ’™

Hereโ€™s to a term of learning, growth and empowering teachers to make a difference, one classroom at a time. ๐Ÿ“šโœจ
