I used this for my 5th grade classroom, but could be used for many grades. Kids really got into the jobs! They had to fill out an application and actually apply for the jobs. :)
Clever! What do you do when your students lie about what they have done or don't do their jobs properly? Also do they keep this job the whole year or do they rotate?

Thank you!!! I haven't even thought of some of the jobs you listed. I've now created a CONDEMNED signed. :-) Love it!

Great idea, love that it's in Word so I can change it to fit the jobs in my classroom too :)
Thank you for this terrific classroom tool! I have had "class leaders" before and left the rest to volunteers. This product is wonderful. Everyone in everyclass, homeroom, each regular class --has a job. I've only just started it but the students from 6-8 are all excited and I am expecting a more clockwork kind of functionality. Their pay besides being good citizens of the school is a positive call home and a homework pass (5 pts). Well done! Thank you again.
Clever! This takes a large load off the teacher. If you want some funny poems to supplement Language Arts, check out my Giggle Grammar, Giggle Reading Comprehension, and Giggle Grammar Study Guide. They are free. I'll pass this on to my friends.

I don't have a class that I would use this in (I teach middle school and have 6 classes per day) but I think this is such a cool and unique way to have kids be involved in thier environment. I am going to recommend this to my daughter's 3rd grade teacher...how cool are you!!

Thanks for the help in completing my list of classroom jobs. Gotta keep them busy and on task!
What an excellent resource for teachers in the higher elementary grades! I know my class will LOVE these jobs and descriptions! They are original which will keep the kids' interest. Excellent work!

This is so cute! I love it!! I will be adding some of those jobs to my current set of classroom helpers! Thanks!
Just wondering, i noticed some said something about being paid... do the students get 'paid' to do their job? What do you use as payment? This sounds super fun! :)
Thanks so much!

When using this system, do your students keep the same job all year? Do you ever get complaints about that from the students?
Thanks! This is really great!

Erin, Thanks for the great download! I love it and can't wait to try it out next year. Jobs are something I struggle with. When you say you had them apply, how did you do that? And did these jobs last all year or did you switch at some point?
THANKS!!!
