Birthday and Star of the Week Freebies!

     

Do you have a classroom economy

or do star of the week?

If so, the following freebies may

come in handy!

I give these certificates to the
student and when we have store,
they may spend them.
(I write their name on the back.)

The following are on the desk with all the other goodies, when the star or birthday child comes in that morning. They are also free, though I have posted them before.

100th Day bookmark & certificates

&

Star bookmarks & foam stars (possible picture frame?!?)

I will be taking pictures of the kiddos on my iPad

tomorrow using the Old Fart Booth app! It's free and

amazing! I will have my students do the writing

activity on Friday, our 100th day!

Seriously...this picture doesn't do it justice!

My daughter ACTUALLY looks 100 and you

can add hair, facial hair, hats and glasses!

I realized I didn't give credit to another source for

the idea! I saw the idea of using the app somewhere

but can't remember where!

HOW do you all remember where you see things???

Celebrating Student's Birthdays!


Birthday Swag!

Similar to Star Swag!
Click here to see!


Student receive a visor, pencil, certificate, bookmark, magnet 
for their locker, sticker for their sticker book, $5 gift certificate
for our class store, a poem for their poetry binder
 and a book made for them by the students, 
about if they could give them any wish, what would it be.

Oh, and two mini cupcakes or one big, depending
on what the store has available!

There is also a Carson Dellosa birthday cake
sign that hangs above their desk for the day!
They get to be line leader (with the star of the week)
and pick a short video to watch while we enjoy
birthday treats brought in by their family.
At the end of the day, they get to pick a fun song
so the whole class can dance.
My star does this every day, so on birthdays we
get to do two!

Check out my Pinterest board here!
I also have a lot of other songs on CD to choose.
I made a list of student favorites for easier picking
but forgot to take a picture!

We celebrate summer birthdays in May!

your classroom store, click here!

I have a new version for the birthday and star student!

Book, puzzle and memory game

Here's the freebie! 

I have had a star of the week poem for years.

I realized something the other day....

WHY don't I have the birthday song printed out 

for their poetry binders?!?!?

Now I do!!

Star of the Week

Star of the Week!


 Click here for a free star of the week poem I created!

Papparrazzi snapping photos!

Gift Bag Goodies and Swag!

Star bag that goes home with a note and an All About Me sheet.

Students bring it back filled with an example of their talent, 

a letter from a family member, favorite book, show and shares, and pictures!

The Red Carpet!

OOPS!! Forgot to take a picture..........again!

The red carpet is a red bath mat the star of the week gets to sit on for the week! 

They even take it to specials!

Finally figured out how to turn

pdfs into jpegs so I can include this idea!

Students write a letter to our star of the

week and I bind them into a "magazine"

for the star to keep!

I created the template in powerpoint and then

I just go back weekly and change the picture,

(sending it backwards so the words are on top)

and change the date and name.

I also laminate the cover and a plain back.
