Picture
this....it's almost 3:00 o'clock. You've survived the first day of teaching but the daunting task
of getting 25 little ones on the correct bus is the most challenging part of
the entire day!
To anyone outside the profession, it sounds easy, right? Until
little Johnny decides he’s suddenly going home with Grandma today, and Emma
swears she’s riding Bus 12 even though she's a Bus 9 regular. Dismissal time, especially with kindergartners
after a long day is more like herding cats…if the cats had no idea what bus they’re supposed to be on.
Enter
the hero of dismissal time: the almighty bus tag! It’s a super helpful way to ensure every
student gets on the right bus. Bus 12? Check. Bus 9? Check. No more panic-inducing moments as children get
on the bus and you’re triple checking the list for the tenth time. Students can hand you the tag or you can clip
it to their bag. They also get used to
seeing the bus number which will (fingers crossed) help them remember their bus.
So,
the next time you’re gearing up for dismissal, just remember: bus tags are your
best friend. Print them out, laminate them for year after year use and enjoy
that feeling of a job well done—no lost kids and no extra gray hairs!
