Dear Families,
Next week I will start the "Star of the Week" activity for our class. This activity will provide a time for the students to share things about their lives and families. It will also let them share some of their favorite things. Here is how it will work... I will announce the Star of the Week in our weekly newsletter. Watch for when it will be your child’s turn. Over the weekend the student and his/her family can decorate a poster board with photographs, pictures, drawings, cut-outs, etc. of his family, pets, favorite foods, TV shows, etc… (similar to the family banner). On Monday, the student will bring in his/her poster and share it with the class. It will then be displayed in the hallway, outside our classroom. The student will bring it home on Friday. The rest of the week, I would like the students to share the following items with us:
Monday - Poster
Tuesday - Favorite book
Wednesday - Favorite toy or stuffed animal
Thursday – Items from a collection or from around the house (Items will be used for an Estimation & Counting activity. Please do not send in more than 100 of the item.)
