Question Coming to a Stop - Is There a Right Way?

I've got a question for the experienced street riders out there. When you come to something like a stop sign/light at an intersection, how do you approach it? Do you downshift and let the clutch out a couple times as you are in the process of slowing to a stop or do you pull in the clutch and coast it while clicking the shifter back to first before the stop? I'd like to know the prefered technique out there on the road. I forgot to pose this question in my MSF classes this weekend.
