Star of the Week

Last Friday, Kalyssa was chosen as Star of the Week. It is a huge honor in her first grade class. Over the weekend we sat down together and created a unique poster that represented some of her favorite things. After coming up with a long list of ideas, Kalyssa decided on a few items that she wanted to share. The picture of the poster isn’t that great but we all think that it turned out great! Kalyssa shared some of her favorite books, her favorite toy, her favorite movies, her favorite animal, a couple of her favorite foods, her favorite holiday, and of course her favorite place to visit DISNEYLAND :) We added a few family pictures that she picked out and of course we couldn’t leave out the state where she was born. The poster will be displayed in front of the classroom this week. Over the course of the week, she will have special privileges in her class (she is very excited about that). At the end of the week, she will get to take in her favorite book for her teacher to read to the class. I am hoping the book decision is easier now that we have finished the poster :) She will also get to take in one of her favorite toys for show and tell along with her favorite snack to share with the class. She has already picked out Pinky Pie (her favorite stuffed animal) and Rice Krispie treats because after all, “shmarshmellows” are one of her favorite snacks. :)
