In between lessons, my class likes to take some "brain breaks". Jammin' Minutes allow us a chance to get up out of our seats and participate in a little movement activity intermittently throughout our daily routine. We just concluded Jammin' Minute 5 this past week. With each week, comes a new Jammin' Minute. See how many action verbs your student can name from the featured video.
The idea came from the school district where I worked for the past five years. I taught 7th & 8th grade at Agnew Middle School in the Mesquite Independent School District (a suburb of Dallas, Texas). The Jammin' Minutes were created as a result of the "Let's Move!" campaign led by our nation's first lady, Michelle Obama.
