Read the passage, then answer the question. A classroom "job chart" is worth using because it saves time and teaches responsibility. First, the chart saves time since students know their tasks without the teacher repeating directions. For example, Mr. Jamal Ortiz wrote jobs like "line leader," "paper passer," and "tech helper" on a weekly chart. He timed the start of math class for three days without the chart and three days with it. Data revealed that the class began work about 4 minutes faster when students checked the chart. Second, the chart teaches responsibility because students must remember to complete a job that helps everyone. Mr. Ortiz noticed that fewer pencils were left on the floor when the "supply checker" job rotated. He also asked students to reflect in journals. One student wrote, "I felt proud when I remembered to plug in the laptops." Some students might complain that jobs are unfair, but the author explains that rotating jobs each week gives everyone a turn. Therefore, a job chart is a simple tool that improves classroom routines. Question: In the passage, what evidence does the author provide to support the point that a job chart saves class time?
