Description
When students return to school the first day after Thanksgiving Break, they are eager to share what they did over the holiday! This brain break will give students an opportunity to share what they did to celebrate Thanksgiving. Students can see what they have in common among their classmates based on who stands for each slide.
This brain break is a quick and easy activity to do over Zoom for distance learning!
How to Play
Stand Up Sit Down can be played while students are at their desk or all together in front of the board. You will read the statement on the slide. Students will stand up when the statement applies to them or they agree. They will stay standing until you say “sit down.” The students will remain seated if the statement doesn’t apply to them. For example: You will read the slide "Stand up if you ate mashed potatoes.” All the students that ate mashed potatoes will stand. The students that did not eat mashed potatoes will remain seated. After a few seconds of standing, you will say “sit down” and then read the next statement. Keep playing until you have done all the slides!
