Something has been missing from our class routine.

It seems like years and years ago, an auction was last seen.

So, this week, on Friday, bring those tickets in.

And do your best to earn some more, before our sale begins.

The "Beat Your Teacher" game's not full; there are still many blanks.

That's just one of the many ways you can fill your ticket banks.

Make sure your work is done on time (even early, if you can).

If a classmate seems confused, give them a helping hand.

Good behavior will be rewarded, so increase that ticket stack.

I'm not making guarantees, but how about being nice to Mr. Mac?

Clean up your table, behave in line, class participation.

There are lots of other ways to increase your ticket ration.

I've lots of real cool items, that you'll want to buy.

Even if you don't get what you want, it's kind of fun to try!

The tickets and the auctions are rewards for a job well done.

But, I know there are some things you do just 'cause they're fun.

Morning Math is one of those. Grammar Giggles is one, too.

My reward is the smiles I see when I give them both to you.

At least, I THINK you're smiling. But whatever expression that you bring.

Just remember, not only are they fun, they didn't cost a thing!
