Hi everyone.

I'm a K-5 bioscience lab teacher. As I get ready to start the school year, I want to have jobs related to science for the students at each table. For example: a materials collector, spokesperson, etc. There will be 5-6 students at each table. Any suggestions on job responsibilities and cool names for the jobs?

Thanks.

Interesting question

What about quizzes?

Quiz is a nice idea, my students also enjoy them. But I would recommend preparing some outdoor lessons for example. Honestly, that's much more effective than sitting in the classroom for hours. I even allowed them to use this source https://happyessays.com/ for some writing tasks so we can spend more time on parks or else. That's important to go with education in different ways. It develops creativity in students which is so important, especially in life science.

A great ideal! basket random

I guess it depends also on how many students you want to have in each group. I like your idea of material collectors and spokesperson. Maybe data recorder?

You right. It depends also on how many students in each group. cuphead

I like your idea of this. I would even like to incorporate something like this in my high school class but have the jobs rotate as much as possible. You could have someone who is the 'cleanup crew', someone who is the 'procedure reader' (can't think of the name for that). But I like the idea of having students designate responsibilities because even in high school, I tend to have students sitting there doing nothing while their other members are doing the work. Love this idea! 

I think having material collectors as well as spokespersons is a great concept.
