Many first graders have already earned Star Student Awards. Students earn these by making responsible, appropriate choices during the school day. Examples include: finding a smart seat choice during work time, writing & writing during Writer’s Workshop, organizing math tools when getting ready for a lesson, cleaning up materials and putting things away, being patient and waiting for a turn, and the list goes on and on...
When I “catch” students making these choices, I will ask them to pick up an award. Some students bring the Star Student Awards home, and some choose to adorn the inside of their locker with them.
