At this time of year, there’s little doubt that your hive is humming with activity! As you make a beeline for the end of the school year, consider these timesaving tips!

Make a quick list of year-end tasks that students (and volunteers) can help with. When an offer to help is extended, you’ll be ready!

During the last week of school, ask each child to collect from around the classroom all items labeled with her name. Kids will love the keepsakes, and you’ll make progress cleaning the room!

To avoid overflowing bags and backpacks on the final day of school, make daily “take-this-home-today” assignments.

What tips do you have for minimizing end-of-the-year chaos? Please share!

Happily,

Diane
