Star Student

As parent of building self-esteem and getting to know each other, our class will be having a weekly Star Student.  The Star Students are posted each month on the class calendar on the website and parent board in the classroom.


As Star Student, your child will need to make a poster about himself/herself to share with the class.  The poster is due MONDAY of your child's SS week and will be returned on Friday.


Here are some ideas to help your child with decorating his/her poster:

• Use a colored poster board about 22"x 28" (from Rite Aid, Michaels, Target, etc)
• Use markers, pens, crayons, glitter, or paint to brightly display his/her name.
• Display a picture of child with a photograph or drawing.
• Display pictures or drawings of family, friends, and/or pets.
• Cut out pictures from magazines to show a favorite food, hobby, or anything else your child likes.
• Write words or statements describing favorite hobbies, talents, and interests.  (i.e. My favorite book is...)
• Let your child use his/her imagination.  The sky is the limit.  Be creative.  This should be a fun activity for you and your child.

As Star Student your child will also get to take home Farley, our class frog, and his notebook.  Farley and his notebook will go home with your child on the Monday of your child's SS week and is due back on Friday. Please make sure that your child takes good care of Farley and his backpack.  

1. In the notebook, help your child tell their own tale about an adventure that Farley had or something Farley and your child did during the week.  
2. Your child should write his/her name and date at the top of the page.  Encourage your child to let his/her imagination fly!  
3. Your child should draw and color a picture to go with the story.

On Friday, I will read the story to the class and your child will share his/her picture and answer questions.  The children and I really look forward to sharing and hearing about Farley's adventures.  Thank you for your support!
