[quote=Anonymous]I'm a teacher and have worked in a few schools and they all have systems similar to this: Students come in to the classroom in the morning. They put away their things and hand in their homework. If they brought a lunch they put it in the lunch bucket. Each student has 3 color-coded cards on their desk with their name on them. Each color stands for a different choice. At my current school, orange is for the regular choice, green is for the alternate choice and yellow is for grilled cheese, which is offered daily. The lunch choices are written on the board with the corresponding color next to them. If a student is buying lunch, they hand the card to the teacher or put it on the teacher's table. The teacher puts all the cards in a pouch and a student brings it to the cafeteria so they know how many of each lunch choice to prepare. Your child has probably observed this process every day since the beginning of the year, so they'll know what to do. Just make sure they have a clear choice in mind. Also, when there have been snow days sometimes the choices change last minute, but it shouldn't be an issue next week. [/quote]
