About the Author:

David Sladkey has been teaching mathematics since 1987. He ihas been teaching at Naperville Central High School in Naperville IL since 1994. He was named Teacher of the Year for Naperville Community School District 203 in 2007. He was named the Office Max Innovative Teacher of the Month in March of 2009. Energizing Brain Breaks is one of two books that he has authored. The other is Easy SMARTBoard Teaching Templates written by Scott Miller and David Sladkey. Daivd was first introduced to Brain Breaks by Jean Blaydes Madigan at a workshop held at Naperville Central in 2007. Since 2007 David and most of the Naperville Central High School staff have used Jean's Brain Breaks and thought of many on their own. From this, David decided to create the Energizing Brain Breaks Book. David's family was a little tired of practicing new Brain Breaks at the dinner table, but this proved essential in creating all 50 of the activities for the book. David currently teaches Intro to Algebra and Precalculus 4/5 of the time and does mathematics department technology 1/5 of the time.

Review:

Energizing Brain Breaks is an excellent resource for quick simple challenging activities that students can do to activate their brain for more optimal learning. Many of the activities were developed by students and for students and really engage the adolescent brain. This is the resource that teachers need to get their students moving in learning.
