Use candy like Skittles. Have them all check their answers, when they are sure that every single one is right, they start with 5 M&M's or 5 skittles. For each problem that's wrong, they have to give back a skittle/M&M. <br />We did this a few times in elementary school, to teach the importance of checking our work, and only turning in things we were sure were right. Eventually, the teacher linked it to us learning we all start with 100, but each problem we let go wrong, we lose points. <br />I wouldn't suggest doing this activity every day, but maybe once a week you do candy checking....Elizabeth Westhttp://www.facebook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5771651558942297032.post-73856425864471719452011-04-19T11:21:27.311-07:002011-04-19T11:21:27.311-07:00Yay! :)Yay! :)Alexis Wesleyhttp://www.facebook.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5771651558942297032.post-52168575477235151992011-04-19T11:21:03.651-07:002011-04-19T11:21:03.651-07:00tell you what, next time I see you, I'll just ...tell you what, next time I see you, I'll just give you a prize from my treasure box.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04140462373011179123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5771651558942297032.post-8828904126447848972011-04-19T11:20:49.944-07:002011-04-19T11:20:49.944-07:00I want a treasure box prize!
