Where Do You Draw the Line?

When they need a break, but you do NOT have 20 minutes to give them one.
 
Where Do You Draw the Line? is a quick classroom brain break that gets students moving, laughing, debating, and deciding just how far they’re willing to go.
Students read each prompt, then choose where they land on the line:
 
Absolutely. Maybe. Absolutely Not.
They can move to a spot in the room, point to their choice, or stay seated and vote from their desk.
It gives you an easy way to break up instruction, reset the room, or give students a few minutes to do something different without eating up the rest of your lesson.

Why It Works
The prompts are simple enough to answer immediately, but questionable enough to make students look around the room like, “WAIT… you would actually do that?!”
So instead of spending the next 10 minutes trying to pull their attention back, you can throw up a slide, let them move and debate for a few minutes, then get back to the lesson.
 
A quick, no-prep classroom reset that gets upper elementary and middle school students moving, talking, laughing, and ready to keep going.
