My grade four students come to me just before their recess. I am always trying to control the balls, silly bands and beyblades that accompany my students. I can’t count the number of times each day that I say “put that away or it is mine”. Recently I have had a change of heart. A couple of weeks ago my students used silly bands in their printmaking project. Today one creative student, used his beyblade to paint ontop of his work.  I may have to rethink the no toys rule.
