Teacher tip

Some jobs are shared. Let kids explain their thinking.

How to use it

  • Connect it to your class jobs and routines.
  • Talk about a time you forgot something and how you fixed it.
  • Let kids choose to share or keep their answers private. Both are fine.

Watch for

Home jobs differ a lot between families. Keep examples open so no one feels singled out.

Talk about it

  • Who counts on you?
  • Have you ever been in a moment like this? What happened?
