There are so many fun and exciting ways to use jokes in the classroom to improve classroom culture, relationships, and student behavior.
- ICEBREAKER ACTIVITY: Start each class with a “joke of the day” to lighten the mood and create a positive atmosphere for learning. I also begin my PE class with a Question of the Day. The kids LOVE it.
- REWARD SYSTEM: Use jokes as incentives for good behavior or academic achievements, encouraging students to participate and stay engaged. I love to pass out funny Joke Stickers to my students, that they can put on their laptops or water bottles, for awesome behavior. The kids love it.
- BRAIN BREAKS: Integrate short joke sessions throughout the day as brain breaks.
- TEAM-BUILDING EXERCISES: Use jokes as a tool for team-building activities.
- CLASSROOM DECOR: Create an eye-catching joke bulletin board or decorate the walls of your classroom, library, home or gymnasium.
- JOKE BOOK: Create a fun Knock-knock Jokes for Kids book full of jokes and place in your classroom library or SEL calming corner in your gym.
