Some More Brain Breaks Again

Here are some more no-prep brain breaks which can be done in the target language:
  1. Odd/Even
    1. Tell students to stand up.
    2. Using an online dice roller, such as Random Dice, ask students to predict if they think that the roll of the die will be odds or even. If students think it will be odd, they place their hands on their heads. If they think that it will be even, they put their arms straight out.
    3. Roll the die.
    4. If students are correct, they remain standing. If they are incorrect, they are to sit down.
    5. Repeat steps #1-4 for as long as you wish.
  2. Red/Black
    1. You will need a deck of cards for this.
    2. Tell students to stand up.
    3. Ask students to predict if they think that the card which you pull from the deck is red or black. If students think it will be red, they place their hands on their heads. If they think that it will be black, they put their arms straight out.
    4. If students are correct, they remain standing. If they are incorrect, they are to sit down.
    5. Repeat steps #1-4 for as long as you wish.
  3. Odd/Even with a Deck of Cards
    1. Do Odd/Even brain break but with a deck of cards. Students will predict if the card is odd or even. This may require that you remove face cards and aces.
