It made me wonder if this experience will make them more likely to vote in government elections once they reach the age of majority. I think there’s a good chance. Wouldn’t it be interesting to know?

In my class, the “jobs” include :
a.) sanitizing shoes at the door (yes even after Lockdown, as my class has an ancient carpet – 25 years) ;
b.) Stamping homework with my teacher’s stamp;
c.) distribute daily class activities to the various groups.

I will definitely use classroom jobs next year. I love messenger and insurance officer especially for my ADHD kids attendance monitor and even some more tailored to my classroom and daily expectations. Thank you!

I can tell you have been teaching for a while and these jobs make a teachers life much more simple. Thank you!

I can’t wait to introduce my version of the “pulse checks.” Thanks for making these videos available to educators.
