Now Featuring: Star Students!

I decided on a movie theme for Open House to showcase my star students! They have been busy reading and writing daily and have become excellent at both!  My superstars had to make the toughest decision of whether they are a "Star Writer" or a "Star Reader." Each student received their star after completing a reading or writing assignment. They wrote 'Reader' or 'Writer' on a black construction paper card using chalk.





Pulled out the red carpet for this event!

 I had a pretty good turnout and many of the parents brought their kids along.  After signing in, the parents found their child's card and wrote an inspirational note to their child.  The cards were left in the student's desk for them to read the next day.  One student was thrilled when her parents mentioned her clean desk in her note! :-)

After the students showed their parents every nook, cranny and chart on the wall they observed a picture slideshow and headed home with these goodies!

I got this  label freebie from Fun in First.   I taped the "Thanks for popping in!" to a mini  bag of popcorn...The parents loved it!
