Have an Inbox for Each Child

I have each of the kids create their own ‘in-boxes' on their desks. They drop all their cheque requests, permission slips and other papers into their inboxes as soon as they get home and we go through it at night and pop them back into their backpacks completed. Having an inbox for each child makes it easy to note if one child is missing one of the forms. - Alison Rockwell, Toronto SavvyScribe
