After observing my CT multiple weeks in a row, my CT has let me take control of the routine on dismissing students at the end of the day. At the end of the final lesson of the day, I used my attention getter that the students know and are comfortable with (which is "Holy mole, Guacamole!"). Once I had students' attention, they were instructed to put all of their belongings away and "pack and stack" for dismissal. “Pack and stack” is there they “pack” their backpacks and then “stack” their chairs in appropriately sized stacks throughout the room. According to our text, it is imperative to establish clear expectations to support successful teaching and learning (Levin & Nolan, 2014). The classroom procedure of dismissal was taught to the students at the beginning of the year and practiced until it was learned successfully. Because this procedure is done with such success less time is required at the end of the day to set up for dismissal, which in turn leads to more meaningful use of class time for learning.
