This year our class is earning money*, saving money* and spending money*. It is a great way to learn about economy! *Play money, of course! Students will rotate through the listed jobs and earn the amount indicated each time the job is done successfully. Not all students will have a job each day, some jobs will be only once a week. We will continue to add to the list of other ways that money can be earned. Daily | JOB | EARNED (+) DAILY IF COMPLETE | | Closets | $1 | | Pass Papers | $1 | | Homework Sorter (2) | $1 | | Messenger | $1 | | Rotate Center Tags | $1 | | Center Clean-up | $1 | | Rotate Job Tags | $1 | | Classroom Library Clean-up | $1 | | Attendance/Lunch Count | $1 | Weekly | Job | Earned (+) | | Banker (Tuesday) | $5 | | Bank Checker (Tuesday) | $5 | | Store Clerk (Friday) | $5 | | Store Checker (Friday) | $5 | | Store Inventory & Organizer (2) | $5 | | Shopping Assistant (Friday) | $5 | | Rotate/write Weekly Vocabulary Word (Friday) | $5 | Other Earnings | Action | Earned (+) | | Correct use of Vocabulary word in Written Work | $0.25 | | Finding Vocabulary word in our Daily Lives | $0.25 | | Good Deed | $0.50 | | Birthday (or 1/2 birthday) | $0.50 | | "Strive for 25" Okayed by Teacher | $0.50 | On Monday morning, students will be presented with a paycheck that they earned from the previous week. The check will include earnings from the jobs the student performed and the debits that the student lost during the week. They must have this endorsed (signed) by a parent. Once signed, they can visit the classroom banker to have their check cashed and savings added to their personal account. | Action | Deduction (-) | | Missing/Incomplete Homework | $1 each assignment | | Talking in Hallway | $1 each time | | Cafeteria/Recess/Bathroom Issues | $5 each time | | Time Wasting (talking out of turn, not prepared for lesson, etc.) | $1 each time | | Homework Binder Unsigned | $1 each time | | Messy Desk (checked on Friday) | $1 | | No Name or number on Assignment | $1 each time | Once a week, during Friday Fun, we will open our classroom store. Week #1 - Students with numbers that are odd will be able to spend their hard earned money. Week #2 - Students with numbers that are even will be able to spend their hard earned money. Week #3 – Odd, Week #4 – Even. And so on!!!! Students will need to decide if they have enough money to buy what they want or if they need to continue to save until the next time they can shop. For right now, Mrs. Beers and I are keeping the store stocked with fun items for the students to buy. We are hoping to receive donations from students of gently used small toys, kids’ meal toys, books, puzzles, etc. to add to the store. Thank you for your support, Mrs. Darci Antinelli
