Student of the week

As I am sure you know, first graders are all SUPER STARS!!!! In our classroom, each child has been assigned a week when they are the "Star Student of the Week." The spotlight is on them. Your child will be the line leader for the week and will have other special perks. They are given a chance to share some special things about themselves with us in the classroom. The "Star of the Week" is asked to follow the schedule below (look on the back for their date to be Star Student). Please assist your child in completing the attached “All About Me” poster.  The star is encouraged to bring in pictures of themselves, their family, friends, and pets. These pictures will be shared with the class and will be returned. Look below to see when your child will be Star of the Week. I will send the poster home the Friday before it is due to complete it over the weekend.   

Star of the Week Schedule

• Monday- Poster Share- we will share your child’s “All About Me” poster and any other pictures they wish to share.
• Tuesday- Bring your favorite toy to be shared with the class. Be sure it is something that can fit in your bookbag and that it is not fragile. 
• Wednesday - Favorite Picture Book - Please send your child's favorite picture book into class. We will read the story in class. Please do not send in chapter books!
• Thursday - Estimation Bag - Please send in a zip lock bag with less than 100 items. The class will try to guess how many items are in the zip lock bag. Some examples are marshmallows, lifesavers, smarties, pennies, pencils, cotton balls, or stickers. Be Creative!!! These items will be returned to you. 
• Friday - Mom/ Dad or guardian should send in a letter to your child explaining why they are so special and unique and how much you love them! I'll read the letter aloud- it will make them so happy!
