classroom helper

Teacher's young volunteer

A classroom helper is a student assigned routine tasks to assist the teacher—distributing papers, erasing the board, taking attendance to the office.

The role rotates among students in elementary classrooms, teaching responsibility while giving children a sense of importance: Maya was so excited to be classroom helper this week.
