I wait to have everyone's attention and then I begin the activity. Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I think that students love things like this, especially the younger kids. I was interning in a classroom where the teacher would sing a song to get the students to find a partner The teacher would say "mix it up" and the students would sing a song and go around the classroom finding a partner. The students loved this and never get upset about the partner they end up with.
