STAR STUDENT!

Each student will be able to be the Star Student once this year! It is an exciting time in the first grade world for each student. They get to be my special helper for the week and they get to sit in the teacher chair (which is very exciting for some reason!). This is a great opportunity for each student to have a chance feeling special, being independent and verbally sharing in front of the entire class.

Monday

Monday we will get to know our star student and present their class poster. The week before your student is our star, I will send home a poster with them. Please help them complete their poster. They take such pride in their posters when they share them in class.

Tuesday

On Tuesday, we invite the Star Student to share their favorite book with the class. They are welcome to read it to the class or I will happily read it to the class for them. Please be sure the book has appropriate language for the classroom.

Wednesday

There is nothing special in class on Wednesday for the Star Student. They are invited to each lunch with me in their classroom (with three friends of their choice). It's been quite a student favorite so far this year!

Thursday

This is when the students can share the Tell & Show can! I will send it home with your student to fill at home. They can put an item of their choice into the can and they will play 20 questions with the item in class. It's a twist on show and tell!
