Title: lunchroom decorum Post by: Shields on December 01, 2009, 02:53:03 PM Does anyone have any ideas how to best facilitate a quiet, safe, menchlech atmosphere during lunchtime. Prizes charts "bribes" are not working.
Title: Re: lunchroom decorum Post by: rroth on December 08, 2009, 12:19:37 PM I had a lot of my students moving around and making a lot of noise until I realized that lunch was way too long for them. We had a 1/2 hour. Most of the students finished within 15 minutes. So now we cut the time down and the kids dont have time to act up.
Title: Re: lunchroom decorum Post by: SHerzberg on March 26, 2012, 04:16:47 PM Usually the children start acting up when they are done/bored of eating. Since children really enjoy listening to stories, you might want to have a teacher or principal tell an entertaining story towards the end of the lunch period. You also maybe could ask trivia questions once in a while instead of a story. It could be on the Parsha, Yom Tov, Halacha ect. This facilitates learning in a relaxed atmosphere and also captures the students' interest.
All of this depends on size of the group eating lunch and the various ages. Hatzlacha!
