Which leader do you want to be?

This is the journal question posted to everyone today. We spent some time talking about the different leadership positions in the classroom and everyone got excited about it. 


These are the available positions:

1) Class Chairperson (The monitor, takes charge of the class when the teacher is not around, makes sure everyone does their roles.) 

2) Vice Chairperson (The assistant to the monitor in ensuring the class is in order)


3) Class Librarian (Takes care of the class library corner and all the books in the class)


4) ICT Leader (In charge of all the IT equipment and usage in the class)


5) Green Ambassador (Takes the first step in having a recycling corner in the class and promotes saving resources and electricity. Also ensures the class is clean and tidy)



6) NE Ambassador (Promotes love for Singapore and makes sure that everyone is included in the school events and activities)


7) Art Leader (Be a role model in the Art class and assists in demonstration and collection of work)


8) Music Leader (Be a role model in Music class and encourages others to have passion and enthusiasm for music. Helps the Music teacher ensure the musical instruments are taken care of)


9) PE Leader (Shows sportsmanship, strength and perseverance when playing sports, helps the PE teacher with the equipment)


10) Reading Ambassador (To promote the love of reading and help others choose books suitable for them)


(The number of badges for each position indicates how many pupils will be chosen for each job.)


I will be setting a time during English lessons next week, hopefully on a day when everyone is present and when everyone is done with this piece of journal writing, for the kids to stand in front of the class and share what they wrote.

Then, the class will vote for the person they feel is best for the job. Of course, the teachers will vote too.

Through this, I hope the kids can learn some presentation skills and gain some confidence in the process.

More updates to come later!

Sincerely,
Mrs Soh

  1. There are 21 positions, so would every child be given a post?

  2. These are the official roles that come with badges. Not everyone will be given one, sadly. The leaders will be on probation for a month and we would change leaders if necessary. For the children who are not selected, we would teach them how to handle disappointment and work towards other goals.
