Line-Up!

I CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT THIS!!! The students line-up next to the red line.  I use this anytime we are going to leave the classroom, firedrills, and when my students are waiting in-line to use the restroom.  The line leader must be behind the red line.  

I use to call my student to line by number, by what they were wearing, by behavior etc.  However, I had to change it this year because I heard the words, "he/she cut" too many times.  I strategically put my students in order according to behavior (who they could stand next to etc.) and taught them to get in this order when I say the "secret line-up code word".  So, I have eliminated the problem of he/she cut and now I can just sit back and relax while they manage themselves.  They know that if they are the line-leader or caboose that they may go to their job position and that this may change who they stand by.  They are smart though and can figure it out =)
