a special person

One idea that could work is the mystery or special person. Pick a student at the beginning of the day but don't tell the kids who it is. Throughout the day you say things like, "My mystery person is sitting quietly just like I asked or my mystery person is not doing what he/she is supposed to right now, etc..." The kids bounce right up as if they were the mystery person. It gets most kids to think about what they are doing even if they are only 4 or 5. At the end of the day you can say who the mystery person was and give the student a treat or you could really be mysterious and only tell the mystery person. You have to tell someone or they won't buy into it. I've found that it only works for about a month or two, so it could be an idea for you. Good luck!
