Who it is for

Classroom teachers

Change the seating in a minute after a long weekend, and let the jobs chart work out whose turn it is.

Supply teachers

A printed chart shows who sits where, by first name and last initial, with the front of the room marked.

The room, set up in a few minutes

A seating chart, a class jobs chart and a morning board, made on your device. Use first names with a last initial, or a nickname for each student. Either way the class list stays in your browser and is never sent to us.

  • Seats in a minute

    Start from rows, pairs, groups or a horseshoe, then drag desks, tables, the board and the door where they go. Drag a student to a seat and they are seated.

  • Rules you record once

    Keep two students apart or together, seat others at the front, the back or near your desk. Shuffle and the group maker follow the rules, and the chart tells you when one is not met.

  • Jobs that take turns fairly

    Line leader, door holder, attendance to the office and more, each with a picture. Next turn hands every job to the students who have waited longest.

  • A morning board for the screen

    The date, your greeting, the day's schedule with the current block marked, what is coming up, a voice level, a class jar, a timer and today's jobs, on one screen. The charts print on one page each.

Names, kept small and kept here

  • A first name and an initial

    Paste your class and Sideroad keeps a first name and a last initial, such as Maya R. The rest of a last name is not kept.

  • No symbol beside a name

    A symbol is how a student profile is known, so a chart of names shows names only, and the class list is never joined to a profile.

  • Or no names at all

    Choose nicknames and every student gets a nickname and a symbol. A chart left on the screen at pick-up time shows Acorn and Birch, not a class list.
