lunch count
By BeaJay

My new school requires a lunch count each day. The first week of school (just finished our 4th week) I did the raise hand if you want... Took longer than I wanted. Then the second week I stapled 3 paper cups to my my calendar
bulletin board. First cup held a tongue depressor for each student (name written on it). Second cup was choice 1 on the menu and third cup was choice 2 on the menu. [Choices were written on the dry erase next to the bulletin board.] Students now make it part of their morning routine to place their stick into the cup of their choice. Since my activity block is at 8:30 and lunch

report is due by 9:00 students who do not make their choice before leaving the room have to take choice 1. This reminds them not to forget the next morning. [I teach 16 - 3rd grade students.]
