Classroom Morning Starters

School starts early, Children hate waking up early. When your students come into class you should have starter activities to get their brain moving and help them start to wake up a little. 

Some examples would be...

* Journal time, when students walk, you give them a prompt and they have to write in their journal for 10 minutes. 

* Play-doh fun; Let them play and build stuff out of play-doh

* Coloring pages; Let them color for a little to start there day, it will get their imagination running.

* Squiggle drawings; It is where you give the students a sheet with a random squiggle, and they have to make something out of it.

* Classroom jobs, come in and complete a task that they are assigned to doing every morning.

* Brain teasers

Comment any other morning activities, you use or know that will get students brains.  pumping.
