Evey morning, we have share time as part of our morning meeting. This morning started\u00a0with sharing about the State Fair and family outings.\u00a0Then a friend called on Regan to share, and she said something a little different.<\/p>\n
“I think we should have, like jobs.”<\/p>\n
After hearing a chorus of “yeahs!” We delved a little deeper to find out what exactly Regan meant by jobs. She shared that our class had jobs last year and she would like to see that continued. I then presented the kids with a question, “Well why do we need jobs?” Friends expressed the desire to keep our room tidier and assist in caring for the room. Then Sascha brought up an interesting math problem. She said, “Well we have more kids than last year, so we will need to have more kids doing each job. Last year we had 20 kids doing a job and it was 2 kids for a job. This year, we may need to do like 3 kids for a job, because we have more than 20.” Messi suggested something else, “Well what if some jobs had 2 people, and some had 3, and some had 2, and some had 3?” Bea shouted, “Like a pattern?!” Then another friend brought up another point. Tajanaye said, “Well what if we don’t want to do jobs everyday? Like just some days?” This led us to a discussion about whether or not jobs should be done every day or on rotating days. Friends took turns sharing their opinion and mentioned when they supported one another’s ideas. After a while of sharing opinions, Jo’Vyon suggested something- “We should take a survey.” With Jo’Vyon’s suggestion, we decided to vote on whether or not we would have jobs every day or on rotating days. By a little bit, we decide on having jobs every day. Later on, we revisited our conversation about jobs. It goes as follows.<\/p>\n
Why should we have jobs? Mrs Argus<\/p>\n
Because its like grownups jobs. Beatrice<\/p>\n
So our room will look more tidy. Lucas<\/p>\n
The people that clean want it to look nice. My grandma has a job. Tajanaye<\/p>\n
My dad works at Fishers High School. Maria<\/p>\n
My mom is a lawyer and gets people outta jail. Miles<\/p>\n
My dad works on cars and fixes them and gets paid. BreAnna<\/p>\n
My mommy works at a food place and a doctor place. Amiah<\/p>\n
My grandma works at IPS, she helps people learn. J’Den<\/p>\n
My mom is a doctor and helps kids, too. Beatrice<\/p>\n
My dad is going back to college to be a nurse. Lucas<\/p>\n
My dad, he works at Angie’s list! Dylan<\/p>\n
My mommy is a nurse. Messi<\/p>\n
Our conversation could have kept going, the kids were so enthusiastic to share about loved ones that they knew with jobs. I am wondering if Regan’s simple idea could turn into a larger investigation on jobs and their purpose… tune back to see!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
