Most teachers say "give me five" to get back the attention of their students. Very few teachers can just start talking and the kids will stop and listen.
I've noticed when I'm in charge in other schools, where I don't know the signals, I use "give me five" when they are in the middle of doing group work, but when I'm teaching and I give them directions to share quickly I tend to say, "Bring it back together"
My fourth grade teacher says, "please wrap up your conversation in 3...2....1...."
