Welcome to Mrs. Abuyo's 3rd Grade Class!

Star of the Week


While your child is the Star of the Week, each day of the week will consist of an exciting event or activity to honor him or her.

As our star of the week, you are entitled to the follow privileges:

Monday

Sharing Sack: During the week before a student is Star of the Week, a sack will be sent home with the child. Students have a week to collect special items with which to fill the bag at home and bring it back to share with classmates on Monday. Items may include awards, certificates, trophies, projects you are proud of, collections, and whatever else you can think of! Students should also bring photos of their choice to display on the Star of the Week bulletin board.

Tuesday

Favorite Book: The star of the week brings a favorite picture book to read to the class (or have the teacher read to the class) at the end of the day.

Wednesday

Parent Letter: Parents will write a letter to the class telling us how special your child is to you. Send the letter in a sealed envelope to school with your child, and I will read the letter to the class at class meeting. The content of the letter is up to you, but you may want to choose from the following ideas: Describe special or funny stories about your child for the class to hear, write a silly or serious poem about your child, tell us some neat things we may not know about your child, send silly or special pictures with a letter describing the pictures, or write a short story with your child as the main character. You may also send a video for the class to watch if you choose.

Thursday

Lunch Buddy: If possible, join your child in the cafeteria for a special lunch on this day. You may also choose to invite a sibling or a favorite relative to be your child's lunch buddy. You can have the buddy be a surprise or let your child know ahead of time. If you are unable to make it during our lunch period, please let me know, and I will plan a special lunch for your child.

The events planned for Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday can be swapped in order to accommodate your personal schedules if you are planning to be a lunch buddy during the week.


If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact either through the school or through your child.
