quick game

when i'm finding that the kids are extra hyper that day, this game helps them get the energy out and ready to sit down and learn.
have every kid touch a part of the teacher. i usually hold out my arms and all of them have to be touching it.
then call out a color. the kids have to run and touch something that is that color. if they are not touching that color, then the teacher can tickle them.
when i'm ready to start the real lesson, i'll call out a color like "fuscia"that the kids won't know. it's funny because they all start to run away, then immediately stop because they realize they have no idea what color that is. then i laugh, and point to that color in the room and we all sit down.
