Dismissal. Just the word makes me cringe. It is always
After much reflecting on how to make the end of the day go smoother I now have an action plan in place that has been working well in my classroom.

Students store all their mail of notices and work they have completed during the day in baskets that are located in their cubbies. This helps keep things organized.
I call students one at a time to get their mail out of their cubbies. They place it into their student binders that look like this:
Do you have a dismissal plan that works out well in your classroom? I love hearing from you!
