DANCE BREAK

Dance it out!
What do you do to manage your classroom? I know there are lots of organziation tips, but I thought this morning, if the students aren't motivated, how do you manage them? I love dance breaks. I feel like there are not enough of these in life. In my dance class I had students that would come in with all the gunk of life weighing them down and ask if they could just dance it off before class started.
So why not apply a dance break to life? I posted my tip below to weareteachers.com
Post yours for a chance to win an I-pod touch (or vote so my class can get one!).
