Use PowerPoint to create easy visuals to help during transitions
Due to a tight schedule, it's important for kids to get into their routines, to have good routines that flow well and that kids do them just so. Here is a slide I use when kids are ready to line up. They push in their chairs, they throw away their wipes and then line up.
This slide is for hand cleaning. I often will prefer kids to first wipe their hands, THEN wipe the tables with the same wipes. That way their hands get the wipe while its clean.
