Today ended Olivia's special week at school. She had such a great time this week at school, and I think it is a wonderful idea for the school! Each child has one special week during the school year in which they are designated the Star of the Week! This week was Olivia's, which consisted of several fun things throughout the week. First, we started Monday with taking pictures of her family which were displayed in the classroom all week. She got to tell her class wh was in the pictures and she was so proud! She couldn't wait to tell them all about her Mommy, Daddy and little brother Lucas. And, she also got to take a Show and Tell item each day this week. So, she wanted to take her new favorite book, If You Find a Rock, that she got from Nana and PaPa, then her Nintendo DS and her Fur Real pet kitty. So, she got to show all her friends her favorite things! We also got to take snacks for the class during the week if we wanted, and of course she wanted to....so did Mommy. So, one day we took ice cream sandwiches and another day we took Oreo cakesters! I got notes home in her folder that the kids (and adults) loved them!!!
She also got to choose a new job each day, and what she told me she wanted to do every day was shapes and colors?? I am still a little confused about what that means, but she was excited about it, so that is all that matters! She was also allowed to bring home a Franklin book and stuffed animal for the week, which basically stayed near her backpack cause she wasn't too interested. But that was okay cause I didn't want to forget it come Monday!
Lastly, she brought home a book she made for the week, which is priceless. The contents include:
Front cover - Star of the Week in which she colored extremely well!
Picture of herself that she drew - stick figure and sooo sweet!
Her story - where she lives, birthdate, how tall she is, etc.
Fun Facts - She wants to be a teacher when she grows up, she is really good at coloring, her hobbies are playing with her glittery bouncy ball, coloring and playing with Mommy, Daddy and Lucas.
Family - Her Mommy likes to play madagascar game with her and her Daddy likes to sleep. Her brother likes to pull her hair (all of which happened this week, so very relevant)!
Likes - the color blue, chicken and rice (which she ate for lunch that day) and her new book, If You Find a Rock.
Dislikes - Turning off the TV, Tomatoes and Onions
It is the sweetest thing ever and something to charish!! :-)
