Year-Round
Activities
Student of the Week &
Traveling Pet
Please make sure to sign up your child for
these beautiful activities as these 2 are the children's favorites! These
activities allow every child to create and share memories with their
classmates. Student of the week will run from August through January and
Traveling Pet from January to the end of the School Year.
As you know, every week, a child is given a set
week that he/she is the student of the week. On Monday of their week, the
student of the week should bring a poster and a book created with family
pictures, favorite books, sports, hobbies, animals and other interests. Parents
will pick a day to present a banner to the classroom. The student of the week
may also bring favorite toys and books to school so they can share with
classmates.
As for the Traveling Pet activity, the
classroom pet will spend a whole week with the child and family. During that
week, parents and the child will have fun together with a new member of the
family while providing love and care to the pet. Our pet loves to read at
night, go to the park, visit museums, give hugs and kisses! However, the pet
does not like taking a bath as he can get sick. Parents and children will enjoy
bonding time and making new memories, and the child will be very excited to
share all the memories with his/her classmates. In their week, parents and the
child should bring a collage of pictures and a written paper containing a brief
description of what they did with the pet. Parents should make sure to place
the collage inside the traveling pet bag.
Sign up for both activities today! Sign-up
sheets are available at the entrance of the classroom.
