Hands On Head To Quiet Classes

I have most of my students trained to sit down, with their hands on their heads, when I put my hands on my head. I usually clap a rhythm then put my hands on my head. The students echo the rhythm, put their hands on their head, and sit down right where they are. This is great for quieting down after a loud movement activity/game/dance/etc..
