Star of the Week

Submitted by Kellie (08-11-2012)

I want a "catchy" name for our star of the week.

I have the information sheets, display table, photo boards all ready to go - I just need a good 'title'

suggestions?

I have been thinking about the same thing..I came up with "Lord/Lady of the Lily Pad" or "Prince/Princess of the Pond", "King/Queen of the Lily Pad". Hope that helps.

I have a frog theme in my room and my kids get to be "Pond Pal of the Week."

I called mine the "Superstar"...one child got to bring in one item every day Monday-Thursday and on Friday the class drew their favorite item the Superstar brought. I bound all the pages together in a book for the "Superstar" to take home.

thanks so much - some great ideas for me to consider - much better than a Yr 5 friend gave me:

"The Big Cheese" - apparently, there is even a throne for them to sit on!?!

Hi Kellie - Put your question on Twitter network and came up with.... so far...

'VIP of the Week' - Very Important Person - I have used this one in the past and like it...

I was also really into silly words with the chn and I would have a 'Precious Possum' of the Week with really littlies - they loved it...

'Really Great Person' of the Week...

will keep updated....

  • I saw an interesting post on Pinterest the other day, showing a plastic, sandwich size, zip-lock bag that had had a piece of duct tape run along the base. The duct tape provided reinforcing that allowed holes to be punched through the bag for storage in a binder. I imagine you could run the tape down the side of larger zip-lock bags for a similar effect. This may not solve all your storage issues, but if there\'s just a few small games to go with a unit that\'s otherwise stored in a binder, it might help!

  • I was just thinking the other day that I needed some matching cards for numbers over 100 then today I came across the new parts of speech posters and thought I\'d check out the \"What\'s New\" section and there I found exactly what I had been wanting. Thank you so much for your wonderful resources. This is the first place I check when looking for resources and I\'ve been able to build a great collection since moving to the lower school grades last year. Thanks again!
