Have your child read the passage or mini book aloud each night. We encourage you to listen to your child read the book and allow them to try to sound out the words on their own.

Above is the schedule of when your child will be our Star Student. On the Monday of your child’s Star Student week, please send in the “All About Me” page and 5 pictures to post on our star bulletin board and by Friday post about your time with Buddy on Class Dojo (please see the attached page for directions).

Star Student Week - Directions for Uploading Flat Buddy to Class Dojo 

Please help your child document their time with Buddy by using the Portfolio section of your child’s Class Dojo profile.  Many students enjoy posting photos or videos of their time with Buddy, but your child may also chose to write a journal entry or draw a picture of their time with Buddy. It’s up to you and your child!  Be as creative as you would like with Buddy. 

To access your child’s Class Dojo portfolio follow the steps below:

·  Download the Class Dojo App if you haven’t already done so.

·  Scan the QR code on the next page.  This will take you to your child’s profile page.

·  Scroll down to the section called “My Portfolio”

·  Click on “Create new” in purple letters.

·  Choose the method(s) you wish to use to share - Journal, Photo, Video, or Drawing.

o   Journal will allow your child to write or talk about their adventures.  They may also include a voice recording, photo or video, or drawing.  Click the purple send button in the right-hand corner when finished.

o   Photo allows your child to take a photo or select a photo from the camera roll.  Click the purple send button in the right-hand corner when finished. Only one photo can be uploaded at a time, so if your child would like to share multiple photos, they will have to make separate posts. 

o   Video allows your child to record a video or select a video from the camera roll.  Click the purple send button in the top right-hand corner when finished.  Like Photo, only one video can be uploaded at a time.  Your child may share multiple videos if desired.

o   Drawing allows your child to use drawing tools to share about their adventures with Buddy.  After your child creates his/her drawing, click the yellow check mark, then the purple send button in the top right-hand corner.

·    Students may chose more than one method to share and may            create multiple posts to thoroughly share their adventures                with Buddy.

We will share your child’s portfolio post on the Friday of his/her Star Student Week.
