Energizers® Classroom Physical Activities

Energizers® are classroom based physical activities that help get students healthy and active while maintaining structure and learning. Energizers allow physical activity to be integrated with learning, and not only help students to be active during the school day, but help them to learn better. Several studies show that increased movement can help balance chemicals in the brain, which may lead to more time on task, and improve students’ learning.  Download PDF copies of the Energizers below or order the ring-bound booklets from the Active Store.

Elementary School Energizers®

Energizers for Elementary Schools are split into booklets for K-2 students and 3-5 students. Many of the activities help students better understand and remember math, grammar, spelling and geography. For older students, activities integrate science and social studies concepts as well as more difficult math and English. Most activities do not require any outside resources, and are easy to integrate into various lesson plans. Teachers can also improvise and add their own ideas to those suggested in the Energizers.
