Energizers get your classroom or school moving. They’re quick, fun ideas that are easy to implement throughout the day for a lively pick-me-up. Each document below is a separate activity.
With APPLE Schools' support, Ever Active Schools developed this resource to get kids moving like the animals on the alphabet cards. Stomp like an elephant, crawl like a bear, or gorilla squat! Print them for your classroom to keep your students moving every day.
Develop imaginations with this physical activity and play-based energizer where the teacher reads different sentences to the class such as “jog in place as if a big scary bear is chasing you”.
Getting into groups or partners is a highly stressful ordeal for kids, for fear of being chosen last. This activity can create new kinds of partners and reduces the stress of pairing up.
