Product Updates - December 2025

Open Parachute updates for December 2025

To wrap up 2025, we're placing focus on engagement and clarity, with new Brain Breaks, a simplified lesson overview, and improved visibility of lesson materials.

This month, our updates include:


New Brain Breaks in Grades 7-12

We've added new movement-based activities to our Brain Breaks for Grades 7-12, designed to help students reset, refocus, and re-engage during lessons. These activities encourage light physical movement to support energy regulation, improve concentration, and create a more dynamic classroom environment, while remaining quick and easy for educators to implement.


A Simplified Lesson Overview

We've updated the Lesson Overview for all Standalone Lessons to make key information easier to access at a glance. By simplifying the layout and reducing image sizes, educators can now quickly see lesson objectives and materials upfront, making it easier to plan and prepare without unnecessary scrolling.


Lesson Material Indicators

Alongside the Lesson Overview updates, we've also added a Technology tag to bring key lesson material details to the forefront. These new icons make it easy to spot what each lesson includes at a glance, helping educators prepare their setup ahead of time with confidence.
