Mrs. McIntyre and Mrs Boca receive the GO NOODLE award!!

What is GoNoodle?

GoNoodle helps teachers channel classroom energy with short interactive brain breaks. Desk-side activities help kids achieve more by keeping them engaged and motivated throughout the day.

GoNoodle is designed with K-5 classrooms in mind.

Key Features:

  • Free. Any teacher, anywhere, can create a free GoNoodle account and start using interactive brain breaks right away.
  • Research-based Brain Break Activities: Using exercise science and cutting-edge research, we’ve designed all of GoNoodle’s brain break activities to be healthy for the body, engaging for the attention, and beneficial to the brain in specific ways.
  • Play in 5 Minutes Or Less: Transition the classroom from listless to engaged in five minutes. GoNoodle takes no time to setup, and each game is designed to be played in 5 minutes or less.
  • Designed for Long-Term Engagement: GoNoodle makes earning minutes of healthy activity a game that your class plays together. Motivate kids to set goals for minutes of activity and reward them for being diligent. Each class chooses a Champ -- a virtual mascot -- who grows as the class earns the minutes needed to advance to the next level. Reward them for engagement by helping them grow their Champ.
  • Multiple Classes: For teachers who see multiple groups of kids each day, GoNoodle can be easily set up so that each class has their own game progress, Champ, and rewards.

What's Required:

GoNoodle is designed for use in the average classroom. All the teacher needs is:
  • A computer.
  • A broadband internet connection.
  • A screen that all students can see (e.g., a projector, interactive whiteboard, or big monitor).
