  Case: Sleeping in Class
Mrs. Will has noticed that some of her students are falling asleep in class which leads them to not grasping the content of the lesson and scoring lower on tests. What can Mrs. Will do to keep these students awake and ensure that they've learned the lessons?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
One obvious way to keep them awake is to keep them moving. Even as an adult, if I sit for very long listening to a lecture or lesson I begin to drift away in thought or get very sleepy. My students struggle with this because of their home lives and the lack of sleep that they get. I have to ensure I am up moving regularly with them even if it means doing some jumping jacks to get them moving!

Comments: sitting down and not being active puts the body to sleep. does not always correlate to what you are doing
