Class Callbacks: Teen Edition | 34 Attention Getters for Secondary Students

You know those cute classroom callbacks that work perfectly in primary school?

“Macaroni and cheese!”

“Everybody freeze!”

Try that with a room full of teenagers and… yeah. 😐

The eye rolls are coming.

But secondary teachers still need a quick way to stop the chatter, bring students back together and get their attention — without shouting, repeating themselves or treating teenagers like little kids.

That’s why I created CLASS CALLBACKS: TEEN EDITION 🎤

A ready-to-use presentation with 34 fun, teen-friendly call & response combinations designed to help you regain your students’ attention without making them cringe.

From:

🔥 “Are we cooked?” → “NOT YET!”

🥑 “Holy moly!” → “GUACAMOLE!”

🎬 “Plot twist!” → “WE’RE LISTENING!”

…and many more.

BUT HERE’S THE BEST PART:

You don’t choose the callback. They do.

Show the presentation during the first days of class, try the different callbacks together and let your students vote for the one that represents their class.

That callback becomes their little class code.

Whenever you say your part, they respond with theirs — and then they know exactly what comes next:

STOP → REFOCUS → LISTEN.

Keep the same callback all year or let students choose a new one every month or term.
