Star of the Week Poster – Before your week starts make a poster board filled will pictures of your child’s life. We want to see babyhood to the present. Show us hobbies, family, pets, etc.
Star of the Week Schedule -find your Student’s week on the calendar: The Calendar. Since we have a small class we will each get about 2 weeks.
Each day of the week will consist of an exciting event or activity to honor him or her and to help us get to know our special classmate.
Line leader – your child will lead our line where ever we travel this week.
Get to choose our GoNoodle break songs.
Monday: Sharing and Poster of pictures: Please help your child collect a few special items from home , and send it back to school with your child on Monday to share with his or her classmates. Try to encourage your child to choose items that have some sort of meaning rather than just a collection of toys. Also, please have your child decorate a poster board with pictures of him or herself from babyhood to the present. If you did a poster last year, you may use the same one, and add new pictures if you’d like. We’ll display the poster in a place of honor on our class bulletin board.
*Tuesday: Star of the Week crown – Your student will get a special crown to show they are the star this week.
*Wednesday: Parent Letter: Parents, you will write a letter to the class telling us how special your child is to you. Send the letter in a sealed envelope to school with your child, and I will read the letter to the class at class meeting. The content of the letter is up to you, but you may want to choose from one of the following ideas: describe special or funny stories about your child for the class to hear, write a silly or serious poem about your child, tell us some neat things we may not know about your child, send silly or special pictures with a letter describing the pictures, or write a short story with your child as the main character. You may also send a special video for the class to watch if you choose. (Sometimes parents have taped messages or choose to send in a funny baby video for the class to see.)
*Thursday – Favorite Book: Your star student brings one of his or her favorite picture books to read to the class (or have the teacher read to the class) at our class meeting.
*Friday – Star Friends Poster: Your star student will be presented with a poster created by his or her classmates. The poster will include the Star’s picture, surrounded by compliments written by his or her classmates.
