Then, as Joanne said, others want to know what we are doing next without waiting for me to explain it to everyone. I call those, "Wait and see questions" but it really gets irritating! I love your visual and have to try that. Thanks so much for sharing! :)<br />~Holly<br /><a href="http://fourthgradeflipper.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Fourth Grade Flipper</a>Fourth Grade Flipperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16878854127879084534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8678514486069553970.post-8793021181435007812013-09-24T23:33:07.940-05:002013-09-24T23:33:07.940-05:00Funny, this problem must be "in the water&quo...Funny, this problem must be "in the water" these days... it is happening in CAlifornia, too!!!! I believe that most of the repeat offenders have become accustomed to doing this strategy of asking for repeated directions for years and this will help eliminate that problem!! <br /><br />Thanks for sharing! <br /><br />Susan <br /><a href="http://lopezlandlearners.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">LopezLandLearners</a>Lopez Land Learnershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09106882924845255131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8678514486069553970.post-44291293012903453682013-09-24T23:22:29.480-05:002013-09-24T23:22:29.480-05:00Love this.

I'm totally trying this idea! What do you...OMG! I'm totally trying this idea! What do you have for this situation....you pass out materials or papers and they ask, "What do we do with this?" I'm just curious if there's ever been a teacher who has passed out materials to students and said, "You're on your own" or "You have to figure it out by yourself". Why can't I just get all the materials passed out and give directions before they ask? LOL! Ok, Jennifer this is your next problem to solve for your readers! haha<br />Joanne<br /><b><a href="http://headoverheelsforteaching.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Head Over Heels For Teaching</a></b>Joanne Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15054895417146708432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8678514486069553970.post-18613431993402883232013-09-24T20:28:47.249-05:002013-09-24T20:28:47.249-05:00Great idea!
