Since I have such a small class (running total of 12 at the moment) I decided not to have a jobs chart. Instead we have helping hands. Each students name is printed onto a helping hand which I keep all together with a curtain ring and a hook on the wall. Each morning we flip over the hand to see who the helper of the day is. The helper has a list of jobs including: marking everyones names on the IWB, being the line leader, marking the weather on the weather chart, handing out books and doing any other jobs that pop up in the day. Changing the hand daily means that all students get a turn on a fairly regular basis. Flipping over the hand has become a very exciting part of our morning routine!
To create my hands I just used a stock image from google images however next term I plan to have students make their own handprint which I will laminate and use instead.
