The Call and Response Attention-Grabbing Technique

Get ready to catch attention and ignite enthusiasm with the proven strategy of call-and-response. This approach has been used successfully in various settings, including classrooms, military drills, sports events, and large groups worldwide. Rather than simply repeating yourself, teach students to engage with a positive or inspiring statement and watch the magic unfold!

 

 

1-2-3 Eyes on Me…and More Attention-Getter Examples

This is a very popular strategy to gain the attention of your students. The teacher calls out a statement, then the students need to respond.

At the beginning of each week, display the phrase that will be the attention grabber for that week. Each week change the phrase so that the students have enough time to get used to one saying!

Some call and response examples included are:

  • Holy, Moly Guacamole!

  • All Set, You Bet!

  • Macaroni and Cheese, Everybody Freeze!

  • And more!
