Counting Down
Topic: Classroom Management
(This idea was contributed by Gemma Carrington)
Age Range: 5 to 11

When getting the children to stop, I found it really useful to just count down from 5.

This gives children the time to finish their last sentence etc. and then when they have to pack away, count up from 1 and reward the first table to be ready.
