We play "I Like To Move It, Move It" to transition from one activity to the next. Once the song starts they have to clean up whatever they are working on and "move it" to the next activity. Works like a charm :)<br /><br />I am so glad I have found your cute blog and am now following along!<br /><br />Nikki<br />Thecozyclassroom.blogspot.comNikki Lishinskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16106286238678348893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-171351518161769077.post-74816712130053419712013-03-10T09:23:13.944-05:002013-03-10T09:23:13.944-05:00I love this idea, and just thought I'd share t...I love this idea, and just thought I'd share that we actually had a Christmas story moment at school this year while I was out for the day at a meeting. One of our lovely kinders dared another to lick the flag pole when it was 2 degrees with -19 windchill. Lets just say the results were not pretty! I thought my teamates were making it up until I talked to our custodian who had to clean blood off the flag pole for the first time in 20 years....So sad for my little friend, but I bet he will NEVER cave into another dare!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12262672926755617069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-171351518161769077.post-8542631551288007082013-03-09T20:16:06.984-06:002013-03-09T20:16:06.984-06:00Veronica- since I just use the ringtones I think i...Veronica- since I just use the ringtones I think it's at most 30 seconds. Some days I have to let the ringtone play in its entirety twice.

I've also realized that if we do a "wiggle song" during a transition time students most a lot faster. They don't want to be cleaning up if they could be dancing! Our favorite wiggle song is "Who Let the Dogs Out" from youtube. No, it's not academic, but it's about 3 minutes long and they are required to move the entire time, they are usually winded when it's over. :)Carrie Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04694971408015846662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-171351518161769077.post-28251463843327353132013-03-05T16:39:19.855-06:002013-03-05T16:39:19.855-06:00I LOVE that idea.

I have them all on my computer and play them through my SMARTBoard speakers. Why haven't I thought of using the timer on my iPhone? I used it for my AIMSWeb testing, never thought to use it with ringtones for transitions.
