After almost any assignment, several students will ask "What should we do?" In order to not have to verbally answer this question, have a sign posted with several options that they can choose from when they finish their work. The list might include some of the following:

1. Finish any other assigments you are working on.
2. Work on your book report or project.
3. Read a book.
4. Draw a cool picture.
5. Write a letter to your parents, teacher, or friends.
