- Numbered

- Told the
children
they were
required to
focus and
take active
part in
learning
because I
would be
calling on
them based
off a number
generator
and the
number on
their desk
Tried the
give me 5
hand
gesture on
my students
and waited
for them to
refocus
attention on
me. Used
the give me
five gesture
then started
to count
down to 1.
Data
collected
- All but 2
children were
so engaged
they were
reminding me
who as
already gone.
-most
everyone
seemed more
interested.
-number
generator
chose a
couple
numbers
more than
once.
(children
found that
unfair)
Time it takes
students to
focus on
teacher with
the give me
5 and the
give me 5
and count
down.
What I
learned
Children
seemed more
involved when
they thought
they would
potentially be
called on. The
number
generator
chose many
numbers more
than once.
Perhaps color
coded popsicle
sticks would
work better?
(secret color
coding will
allow me to
know what
students to
choose for read
alouds, math
problems,
science, etc.)
Students
refocus their
attention to the
teacher quicker
when you start
to count down.

Notes about
D.
D Lives with his

foster parents,
very excited
about his
birthday
coming up,
wants to go to
a hibachi place
for his birthday.
Loves to play
video games.
Had a huge
smile on his
face when we
entered the
room after our
talk that my CT
noted. I
thought it went
well, however I
over heard D
tell another
teacher, I hate
you.
Learned

Implemente
d give me

attention
getter then
tried it with
counting
down to 1
method to
see if the
children
reacted
different.
Tried simply
raising my
hand to get
the attention
of the class.
Children
responded
faster again
with the count
down method.
It seems over
the last couple
of weeks that
the students
consistently
respond faster
when you start
to count down.
Slower at first
to respond
Talked to D
about his
day and
what he
thought of
his new
behavioral
plan
Notes from
conversation
The students
took a while in
the morning to
all have their
hands raised
like mine and
have their
attention
redirected
towards me. I
did however
notice the more
often I did it
the quicker
they responded
and started
watching me
closer.
