Things we do in Class!
Here's a little game I like to play at the end of the day. It's called magic trash. I will secretly spy a piece of trash somewhere in the room. It could be anything! Then, I'll simply say the words...."Magic Trash". The kids know that this marks the beginning of a cool activity. They ALL quickly pop up and begin searching the tables and floors for little bits of trash that need to go in the waste basket. I just stand back and watch. The lucky person who comes across my piece of "Magic Trash" that I picked out earlier gets a trip to the treasure chest! (And I get an instantly cleaned room) Everybody is a winner! WooHoo!
