Transitions

Having well established transitions also help teachers to manage time.
My third grade cooperating teacher was excellent when it came to transitions. One trick she would use was to have students get their stuff ready for the next subject. For example she would have students get out their testing folder before going to lunch. When students came back from recess and lunch their folders were out and they were ready to go. Students were able to get their routines down quickly and when I started student teaching in their classroom they were reminding me that they needed to get their folders out.
