Classroom jobs
Benefits of having classroom jobs
Teach Students Responsibility
Children love being helpful. When students are given responsibility in class they take more ownership of that class and at the same time get to enjoy helping out. The collection of job labels that I've created have enough jobs for each student in the classroom.
Build a classroom community
As student work in the classroom, they create a sense of classroom ownership. For example, if you have a student in charge of cleaning up they will be less likely to make a mess in the first place. If you have a student put in charge of the library center they will be more invested in keeping that area clean and organized.
Don't do it all yourself
Teachers are busy anyway. There never seems to be enough time in the day to get everything you need to accomplished. You don't have to do it alone. You have a built in system of students who are able and willing to help out! Have them help out it the class by giving each student a classroom job. Classroom jobs are a great addition to any classroom management plan.

How to set up the classroom jobs

Introduce the jobs a few at a time. When introducing them describe and model each job. Give students a paper with the steps they need to follow to complete their job. You can assign students to take their job description home to share with their parents.
Rotate jobs every week. When switching jobs let the student who formally held that job give the new student training. Students will love being the expert and showing the next student the ropes. By rotating each week each student will be able to have a chance to work in each job.
Some of the jobs can have more than one student assigned to it. Some jobs that you might consider this with are: Paper passers and collectors, desk monitors, librarian, clean up helpers, and homework checkers.
