Key word and time limit! By Eydie

I always tell mine, Twenty second count down! When I say "go" I want to see your sissors, crayons and glue in front of you. Ready ....go!
Then I count backwards slow but steady from 20 (which is a skill that some of them did not master in first grade so hearing it often helps them to learn it)
When I get to 0 they have to be ready...falls under my follow directions the first time they are given rule!
