Dear Parents,
This year, your child will have the
opportunity to be the “Gold Star of
theWeek”!
While your child is the Star, each day of
the week will consist of an exciting event
or activity to honor him or her and to help
us get to know our special classmate.
 Monday:
Poster Share:
The star student will be given a special
poster the week before, and will bring this
poster (filled out and colored) on Monday to
start off his or her special week to share
with the class at Morning Meeting.
Tuesday:
Favorite Book:
The star student brings one of his or her
favorite picture books to read to the class
(or have the teacher read to the class) at
our Morning Meeting.
Wednesday:
Parent Letter:
Parents, you 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 I
will read the letter to the class at Morning
Meeting. The content of the letter is up to
you, but you may want to choose from one of
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.
Thursday:
Treasured Trinkets:
Please help your child collect up to 5
special items from home and send them to
school with your child on Thursday to share
with his or her classmates during Morning
Meeting. Try to encourage your child to
choose items that have some sort of meaning
rather than just a collection of toys.
Friday:
Star Friends:
The star student will be presented with a
friendship poster created by his or her
classmates. The poster will include the
Star’s picture, surrounded by compliments
written by his or her classmates.
I will let you know the week before it's
your child's week to be the Gold Star
so that you can help him/her
prepare. If you have any questions, please
don’t hesitate to ask. I hope your child
enjoys his/her special week!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Gold
