Clip to ScrapBook   
This year I've purchased something that kind of looks like a stopwatch that makes different sounds. A teacher this year had one that included a tarzan yell. The kids loved this--actually, I did too.:p I'm anxious to try it
out myself.

This past year I mainly did...
"If you can hear me clap your hands twice..."
If I still didn't have the attention of a few, I'd say...
"If you can hear me clap your hands three times."
The good thing is those who were busy would hear the others clapping and it would get their attention right away. I've also changed it up a bit by saying something like...
"If
you can hear me stand on one foot." or
"..........................twirl around two times."

I like to have fun with my kids, so not only did they have fun doing these things, I got their attention quickly.

Oh, I forgot. Our fifth grade team also did something we learned with the kids at camp.
The teacher says, "And a hush fell over the crowd!"
The kids would respond..."Hush!"
