Back-to-school season is here! As teachers welcome students and build new classroom routines, KIDZ BOP can be a fun and easy way to add music and movement to the school day.

From brain breaks to classroom celebrations, here are five ways to bring KIDZ BOP into your classroom this school year.

1. Start the Morning With Music

Set a positive tone from the moment students walk in! Play a KIDZ BOP classroom playlist during arrival, unpacking, or morning work to make the start of the day more upbeat.

2. Take a KIDZ BOP Brain Break

Need an energy reset? Turn on a KIDZ BOP song and get students moving! A quick music and movement brain break is an easy addition between lessons or after independent work.

Try freeze dance, follow-the-leader, or simply let everyone dance along to a favorite song.

3. Make Transitions More Fun

Use music as a cue for cleaning up, switching activities, or getting ready for the next lesson. Challenge students to finish their transition before the song—or a section of it—ends.

4. Bring Music Into Learning

Turn a KIDZ BOP song into a classroom activity. Students can clap to the beat, practice movement patterns, learn about rhythm and tempo, or use a song as inspiration for a creative writing activity.

5. Celebrate With a Classroom Dance Party

Celebrate classroom wins with music! Whether students reach a reading goal, finish a big project, or earn a class reward, a KIDZ BOP dance party is a simple way to make the moment special.

Make KIDZ BOP Part of Your School Day

From morning routines and classroom brain breaks to learning activities and celebrations, there are plenty of ways to make music part of the school day.
