Me: "Today we're going to look at some inventions..."
Class: "Groan"
A Student: "Awesome! Inventions are cool!"
I tell A Student: "Gold Star!"
(this means he can pick anything out of my 'Gold Star' bucket, including candy)
A Student: "REALLY?!"
Me: "Yep. You get a Gold Star for having a positive attitude!"
A Student gets a piece of candy, pops it in his mouth.
A Student says: "Mmm a Positive Attitude sure tastes good"

Love. It.
