If your students don’t respond the first time you ask for attention, this one’s for you.
 
This lesson walks your class step-by-step through learning your attention-getter — the single most underrated routine in classroom management. You’ll model it, practice it, and build consistency until your students can stop, look, and listen the first time, every time.
 
A 3-page crystal-clear plan that teaches kids exactly what your signal means and how to respond. Because you can’t manage what you can’t regain control of.
 
Includes:
Full lesson plan (intro, direct teach, practice, feedback, wrap-up)
Student discussion prompts for engaging practice
Teacher tips for consistency & follow-through
Optional interventions for groups that need more reps
 
Set the tone for a calm, focused classroom — and reclaim control over the talking.
