Consumers and Producers Classroom Jobs

We have officially started our classroom "jobs" this week! Just like the jobs that your child will have at home, they will also have a job in our classroom. Last week, they "applied" for their job by filling out an application. After reading about all of the options for jobs, each student wrote down their top 3 choices. They needed to list previous job experience (chores around the house or in the classroom), write about why they wanted the jobs they were applying for and even have friends write references for them. We talked about how it is important to write  neatly on applications and we discussed good ideas for why they want a job. They did a great job and each student received a job that was on their top 3 list! Each day that they complete their job, they will get their "time card" stamped. At the end of week, they will receive a "pay check" for completing their at school and at home jobs. This check will be used to shop at our store of products at the end of the unit.
