Type your classroom jobs and your class list. The board shows who has each job this week (or today), turns the list on its own when the week changes, and prints a job chart for the wall. Tap a name that is away and their job passes to someone who has none. Free, and the names stay on this computer.

How to use it

  1. Edit the jobs (one per line) and paste your class list. Choose to change jobs every week or every school day.
  2. Press F to put the jobs on the projector. Weeks start on Monday and the list turns by itself.
  3. Tap a name under Who is away today and their job is handed to a child without a job. It clears tomorrow.
  4. Press Print the job chart for a wall chart that shows this turn and the next three.

Ideas for class

  • Have more names than jobs? The rest sit out one turn and come round next, so every child gets a turn.
  • Have more jobs than children? A child holds two, so list only the jobs you need.
  • Print the next four weeks and post it so children know when their turn is coming.
  • Rotate daily in grades K to 2 so every child has a turn within a few weeks, and weekly from grade 3.
  • Use the wheel to pick a job at random instead when you want a surprise.
  • Rotate by hand with Rotate now when you have a short week.

Questions

How does the rotation work?

The jobs stay in order and the class list slides along by one place each turn. So each child gets the next job on the list, and over the year everyone has done every job.

What if a child is away?

Tap their name under Who is away today. Their job goes to the next child who has no job, or shows Away today if everyone has one. The tap clears the next morning.

Is the class list saved?

It is kept in this browser so the board is there tomorrow. It is never sent to us. Use numbers instead of names if you prefer.

Does it turn on its own?

Yes. It counts weeks from Monday (or school days, skipping weekends) since you set it up. Use Rotate now or Back one for a hand turn.
