Ah, the first few minutes in the classroom.
Combine that with the first few minutes in the morning 
It’s super simple – if you know me, I’m all about simple, practical, and easy.
Enter the Morning Jobs I Can Cards. We don’t start the year with all of the job cards hanging up. I start with the most important one. In the fall – it’s simply hanging up our backpacks. As the days go on, and I introduce the other jobs, I add the other I can cards. The children always refer to these job cards to make sure that they are finishing all of their morning jobs.
Here are some of the morning jobs that I do…putting their folders in their mailboxes (after they check for notes).
Signing in…
Sometimes I will have them sign in on the IWB by answering a question.
They will choose their lunch. The larger picture is mine, the other two were unfortunately dead-end pins. If you know who those belong to, please let me know, so I can give them credit!
I love this interactive check in from Pink Cat Studio!
If you would like these morning job cards for your classroom, you can download them for free {here}.

ReplyDeleteYou just made my day! Our blog is in the middle of a bit of a make-over. I was going through all of the blogs we follow to see if the buttons were still working. When I came to your's, I was re-directed to your latest post. SHAZAM!! I immediately saw an ecard that I created! :) The one on multi-tasking. As corny as it sounds, it makes me smile when I make a joke that other teachers can so easily relate to. Thanks for the smile!!! Have a great year. Take care.

This is a great idea. You are super creative.
ReplyDeleteIf you don't mind me asking, what is the name of the font you used on these super cute cards? I would love to add in one for going to breakfast and would be so excited if the font was consistent :)
ReplyDeleteI would love to know how you do the IWB activity?
