Taking attendance and keeping track of lunches can be a time consuming activity. In our class, the students are responsible for making a daily lunch choice as they walk into the classroom. This helps save time and provides daily graphing skills for the students. As they remove their name and transfer it to a lunch choice, I am able to quickly check attendance and have a quick count for lunch to turn into the office. At the end of the day, a student helper is responsible for removing the names and placing them back on the Student Names column. The only thing I have to do is change the picture of the lunch choices at the beginning of the year, as the year progresses, the student helper reads the lunch menu and changes the next day's lunch choices.
This is what the chart looks like, but it measures about 38"x 22", and fits perfectly on a door.
There are two choice columns because my school district offers two lunch choice entrees to the kids, but you can make yours with less!
If you would like to make one of your own, I have uploaded it to my
I've included all the directions to make your own.
~ Let me know what you think!
This is the new one I created for the upcoming school year. I added some graphics and accents to it, and am excited to add the finishing touches to it...lamination and velcro!
I left a blank space between the Large Label and the Choice Columns, because I have created some picture cards that display the lunch choices for our school district.
Hope you enjoy!~Please let me know what you think!
