Star Student

Each week, a student in Leah's class is designated as the "Star Student" and everyone gets to learn about him/her throughout the week. This week was Leah's turn. We made her a poster all about her favorite things, how she spends her time and just some Leah facts (has your 7 year old been to more than half of the 50 states?!). My favorite was that we created the poster saying she had lost 6 teeth...and she lost one 10 minutes before the bus came as we were brushing her teeth Monday morning, so we had to quickly change the poster. She thought it was hilarious! 

The star student also gets to bring home a special book bag full of Little Critter books...and Litter Critter himself. We were able to take pictures of Little Critter helping Leah do all the things she does in a normal week: reading at bedtime, eating, sleeping, swinging, dancing and climbing on the ginormous tree the landlords cut down in our backyard. Doesn't everyone use a giant, dead tree as a play structure? 

Her class had a Q&A and asked her lots of questions, which she was more than happy to answer. It was a great week for Leah, who definitely doesn't shy away from being the center of attention. Love that girl.
