Students are always eager to share what they did over break, and this activity is one way to give students opportunities to share! Students can see how their classmates spent their winter break based on who stands for each slide.
This brain break is a quick and easy activity to do over Zoom or Google Meet for virtual 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 got a new pet.” All the students who got a new pet will stand. The students that did not get a new pet 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!
