Teachers, the classroom management idea I’m about to present to you is SO dumb but SO effective.
And all you need for it is a pen, marker, or highlighter.
I call it STUDENT SQUIGGLERS.
I actually recorded a short video about it so you can learn all the fun details.
I have the Tik Tok Version here

Even though I used a green highlighter, you can remix this in any way with any color.
My students like to make-believe I am creating actual art on their paper.
They treat my squigglers like clouds when you were looking out the window on a road-trip as a kid.
“Ms. Genta you drew me a dog.” “Ms. Genta I love your shopping cart.”
Overall, it’s hilarious AND engaging!
Would you try this?
With so much laughter and learning,
PS- If you like ideas like this you would LOVE this upcoming teacher PD
