Classroom responsibilities

We introduced "classroom responsibilities" last week and completed a chart that will keep us on track with the weekly rotation of jobs. The jobs are: teacher's assistant + time watcher, nurturer, lead janitor, crossing guard, sweeper, and waiter / waitress. So far, the children are doing a great job. The idea behind this exercise is not only to instill a sense of responsibility and empowerment, but it is also a practice in leadership skills and a way of demonstrating that everybody has something unique to offer our community.

The name tags are made out of cracker box and velcro!
Also, we laminated the name tags with plastic tape.
Done and on the wall!
 We've also been having brainstorm sections about respect, hopefully we'll come to a signed agreement this coming week.
