  Case: Accountability during centers
I have five centers on a rotation during the week for Literacy and Math. Some students play around or don't play the games right. How do you hold students accountable for their center time behavior and work without creating a lot of paperwork for the teacher?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would let them know that everything they do is for a grade. That way there's accountability. If you don't actually plan on grading it, that's fine. As long as they THINK they will be graded, that will work. If not, then tell them that if they arent staying on task, they will lose their privileges and will need to sit out while everyone gets to do centers.
