Abstract
The chore tracker is a device which provides an individual with a means of listing the chores, specifically those that need to be completed on a daily basis and then keeping track of whether the chore or task has been completed. The chore tracker comprises two columns, one indicating a chore needs to be completed and the other indicating the chore has been completed. When the sliding tab shows red the chore needs to be completed. Once the chore has been completed then the sliding tab is moved so that it shows green in the completed column. At a specified time, all of the sliding tabs are returned to the non-completed status. Therefore, each task would start fresh on a daily basis by showing the chore as needing to be completed.
