Explanation:
The term was originally coined and used by Madeline Hunter. A "sponge" is an activity designed to produce learning during the times taken up by "administrivia." These sponges stem from her teaching philosophy that there should be no wasted moments in her classroom. Therefore, she created these sponges to soak up every valuable moment.
The concept of sponges has changed names over time and place. Some teachers call them "bell work" or 'vocabulary builders.' Whatever we call them, they are worthwhile for many reasons. The links below provide many examples of sponge or transition activitites." ( Dr. Jill Kerper Mora, San Diego State University)
