Where's the best spot to sharpen your pencil?

• Is it the pencil parking lot?

• Maybe, by the cubbies?

• Or, right next to the paper towels?

• Could it be both the pencil parking lot and by the cubbies?

Ready for a fun challenge? Can you tell me which hand signal we use when we need to go to the bathroom?

• Is it 3 fingers?

• Or just 1 finger?

• Maybe it's 2 fingers?

• Or could it be 5 fingers?

When is the perfect time to ask a question?

• While you're working on your class work.

• When the teacher is in the middle of teaching.

• During a break.

• Either during a break or while you're working on class work.

Can you guess where we've hidden the bathroom and hallway passes?

• Are they by the classroom door, waiting for you?

• Did we sneak them onto the kidney table?

• Could they be hiding in the classroom library?

• Or did we leave them out in the hallway?
