Start with a Joke!
Topic: Time-Fillers
(This idea was contributed by a visitor)
Age Range: 5 to 11

It's always good to start off the school day on the right note. So why not start it off in a fun manner?

Telling jokes at the beginning of the school day will get your students out of the "morning look" and into a learning mode.

Just read a couple jokes each morning and even at the end of the school day, or maybe even if you have time to spare. Believe me, the kids will really enjoy it!

The children could also share any jokes that they know.
