How to make students want to listen

A way to make students want to listen to you is by rewarding them with something. So if they were being quiet you could place a small prize on their desk. (Can be purchased at Dollar Tree)
 Such as:
Eraser
Pencil
Pencil topper

Another thought is having teams. You can put students in teams and have them compete  against the other teams. Give points to each team for being good, finishing their work first (correctly), cleaning up, etc. At the end of the week the student with the most points can get a prize
 Such as:
Picking out of the Prize Box
Sitting on the carpet
Free Draw

          Soon you will realize your students will want to listen and pay attention to you.
