As a way to encourage a positive self-image, as well as a mutual respect for one another, your child's class will have a "Rock Star of the Week". Every week a student will be chosen randomly to fulfill this title. While your child is the Rock Star of the Week, each day of the week will consist of an exciting event or activity to honor him or her (please refer to the attached schedule).
A bulletin board is dedicated to the Rock Star of the Week. The students get an opportunity to really feel special and to share with his or her peers. We believe that this is a good way for children to understand and appreciate one another. This is meant to be a positive experience for all of the children. When your child is chosen please encourage him/her to participate.
We are sure your child will be so excited that they will let you know when it is their turn. Please fell free to contact me if you have any questions. We look forward to learning more about your child.
Rock Star of the Week Schedule
Sharing Sack: Students have to collect 3 special items with which to fill a bag at home and bring it back to share with classmates on Monday. Students should also bring 6 photos of their choice to display on the Rock Star of the Week bulletin board, as well as a CD of their favorite music.
Favorite Book: Student brings one of his or her books to read to the class. Students can read the book aloud to the class if it can be read in less than 10 minutes or give a book-talk if the book is longer.
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 we will read the letter to the class. The content of the letter is up to you, but you may want to choose from the following ideas: Describe special or funny stories about your child for the class to hear, write a silly or serious poem about your child, tell us some neat things we may not know about your child, send silly or special pictures with a letter describing the pictures, or write a short story with your child as the main character. You may also send a video for the class to watch if you choose.
Student of the Week Recognition: The student will be recognized by his or her classmates and presented with a "Rock Star of the Week" certificate.
