Shining Star
Wednesday, August 31st, 2011From Wednesday Mom – Janelle:
Getting to know your classmates always makes for a better understanding of exactly who they are and what they like. Jack’s class has had a “Shining Star” student each day of the week since the beginning of school. Jack was the star on Monday. Each star makes a giant collage of themselves to take to school and present. Jack and I decorated his board with pictures, stamps, stickers and cut out pictures of some of his favorite characters.
Once he arrived at school he was beaming with excitement. He gets to be the line leader for the day. This is a very important job according to Jack. Everyone wants to be the line leader and to have it all day is quite a treat. Now that I think back to my Pre-K/kindergarten days, I can specifically remember being the line leader. It was always so much fun leading everyone around and having that sense of power being the first in line. Life doesn’t always work like that way, but it’s nice to experience it every once in awhile.
Jack and Tate are my Stars everyday. They make me laugh, cry, and sometimes scream. They are my life, and I wouldn’t change it for the world. Hug your star today, and know that they are shining inside just as much as they are on the outside.
