Star Student


Every child in my classroom will be honored by being the STAR of the week!  This will allow our class to get to know more about your child on a personal level. Each day will consist of the following activities to honor your child.
 

 *Monday: Sharing Sack: A small backpack has been sent home with your child to use as the “sharing sack.” Please help your child collect special items from home with which to fill the bag such as pictures (5), collections, awards, anything you can think of 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 that just a collection of toys. 
 

 *Tuesday: Favorite Book: Your child should bring one of his or her favorite picture books to read to the class (or have the teacher read to the class). 
 

*Wednesday: Lunch Buddy If possible, join your child in the cafeteria for a special lunch on this day. You may choose to invite a favorite relative to be your child’s lunch buddy. If you are unable to make it during our lunch period (11:40-12:10) please let me know.  
 

*Thursday: Parent Letter: Parents/Guardians, 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. 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, tell us some neat things we may not know about your child, send silly or special pictures with a letter describing the pictures. 
 

*Friday: Classmates: Your child will be presented with a friendship booklet created by his or her classmates.  
 

The events planned for Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday can be swapped in order to accommodate your personal schedule. 

Please let me know if you have any additional questions about your child’s exciting week!
