Star of the Week Class List < Click here to see when your child's assigned week is!
This year, students will each be assigned a week to be our class Star of the Week. The Star of the Week will participate in the activities listed below, during their special week.
Monday – Sharing Sack: On the Friday before a student is the Star of the Week, a tote bag will be sent home with the student. The student has the weekend to collect three special items from home to fill the sack with. They will bring the sack back to school on Monday to share with their classmates. Students may also bring a few photos of their choice to share and display on the Star of the Week bulletin board.
Tuesday – Favorite Book: The Star of the Week brings one of his or her favorite books to read to the class. Students can read the book aloud to the class if it can be read in less than ten minutes, or give a “book talk” if the book is longer.
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 during our class meeting time. The content of the letter is up to you. I have included a few ideas you may like to consider.
· Describe a funny or special story about your child.
· Write a silly or serious poem about your child.
· Tell us some interesting things we may not know about your child.
· Write a short story with your child as the main character.
Thursday – Lunch Buddy: If possible, join your child in the cafeteria/courtyard for a special lunch on this day. Your child may also be picking two friends from class to eat with, if they choose to. If you are unable to make it during our lunch period (12:10 – 12:35), please let me know and I will plan a special lunch for your child.
Friday – The Star of the Week will be recognized by his or her classmates and presented with a special token in honor of being the Star of the Week.
**Events planned for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, or Thursday may be swapped in order to accommodate your personal schedule, if you are planning to be a lunch buddy during the week. Please let me know so I am able to make appropriate adjustments with the schedule.
