Yes, but I've found that sitting the wandering minds close to me when I'm
working with a small group helps. Although they may stop working, because they
are near me, they get the advantage of hearing what is happening in the other
group. As long as they do some work, and don't become wandering bodies, I don't
worry about it too much. I also have what I call "Workshop Time," which is when
students can choose the work they do, as long as they have their basic
assignments completed. We are a project based school, and the kids always want
to work on their projects. This is a powerful motivator.

settings. I will grant you there may be one or two that stop working (and
because they're little, they aren't so good at faking it).
