It's back to school so it's time to get organized! These large and colorful classroom helper cards are great for getting your kids in tuned with what responsibility is all about. All you need to do is determine which helper cards you wish to show on the chart, print and laminate. You can mount the cards on the display board using velcro or sticky tack or you can hot glue ribbon down the middle to the back of each card vertically. The size or length of your chart depends on the number of helpers you choose. If it turns out too long you can make two or more columns, depending on your board space.

I also included two extra card templates without images that you can customize at will. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ TIPS: To ensure that every child has an opportunity and responsibility assign two students per job. This also encourages job-sharing or working together as a partnership. You can either designate the jobs to students, have them choose or apply for a position A good idea is to rotate the jobs either daily, weekly, or quarterly, it’s your choice. You can make the transitions easier by having a “training” session by the previous student to help the next student to do the job efficiently. If you want your students to become responsible while building a community spirit, give them responsibilities. Classroom Jobs are a great way for students to take responsibility for their classroom.
