You might have heard your child talking about the "Super Student." Each day, a child is randomly selected to be this student. As one way to learn about each other and to build community, the child is highlighted for the day. The class interviews them, asking them questions about their interests, favorites, about their home, etc. We also learn about their name and do a special name chant. Each student then writes and draws all about this "super student." Each page gets put into a special book all about that child. You can look forward to reading these at open house at the end of the month. Throughout this whole process, students practice what it looks and sounds like to be a "super first grader" as we've been referring to them as in the classroom. INQUIRE with your child what it looks like and sounds like to be a super student. What magical powers do they have/show?!
