Star of the Week

 

 

 

     While your child is the Star of the Week, each day of the week will consist of an exciting event or activity to honor him or her.

Star of the Week Schedule

      *Monday: Sharing Sack: The Friday before a student is Star of the Week, a backpack will be sent home with the child.  Students have the weekend to collect special items with which to fill the bag at home and bring it back to share with classmates on Monday.  Students should also bring several photos of their choice to display on the Star of the Week bulletin board.

     *Tuesday: Favorite Book: The star student brings one of his or her favorite picture books to read to the class (or have the teacher read to the class).

      *Wednesday: Parent Letter: Parents 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. The content of the letter is up to you, but you may want to choose from 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.

     *Thursday: Lunch Buddy: If possible, join your child in the cafeteria for a special lunch on this day.  You may also choose to invite a sibling or a favorite relative to be your child’s lunch buddy.  You can have the buddy be a surprise or let your child know ahead of time.  If you are unable to make it during our lunch period (11:35-12:05), please let me know, and I will plan a special lunch for your child.

     *Friday: Star Friends: The star student will be presented with a friendship poster created by his or her classmates.  The poster will include the Star’s picture, surrounded by compliments written by his or her classmates.

 *The events planned for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday , and Friday can be swapped in order to accommodate your personal schedules if you are planning to be a lunch buddy during the week. *
