Appeal to the children's techie sides - Pinterest finds

I found these two techie-themed displays on Pinterest. 

A fantastic iPhone display for classroom jobs by Sheila at Room 13...

... and an Angry verbs display.

I was then inspired to make an Angry Birds-style display for my room. I settled on an "Our Golden Rules" display. I have yet to add the golden eggs (the children will make these next week). Stay tuned for the finished product!

Classroom jobs linky party

I'm posting this as part of Mel's (@ Mrs. Dillard 1st Grade) first linky party.


One of the great things about working as a substitute teacher is that you get to see some great ideas for organisation, classroom management, lessons, displays, etc.


Here are some class jobs that I've seen along my travels:

• Equipment managers
• Door keeper
• Messenger (takes notes to the office/ other classrooms)
• Shelf/Bookcase organiser
• Playground pals (in older classes, these must look out for the younger children in the yard)
• Distributors (Give out books/sheets)
• Collectors (Collect books/sheets)
• Bell (in many Irish schools, somebody has to ring the hand-held bell for breaks!)
• Time keeper (for timed activities)
• Environmental officer (takes care of recycling bins)
• Substitute (stands in when anybody is absent)
• Post master (collects the school post and distributes to the teachers)
• Roll book couriers (take the roll book to the next classroom)
• MC (greets and introduces guests to the classroom)
• Closet/cloakroom monitor (makes sure that all coats are hung up properly)
• IT technician (turns on/off lights, computer, etc. at the start and end of the day)
• Doorman/doorwoman
