Star of the Week

Being in Pre-K is pretty fun stuff.  Every kid gets a turn at being the Star of the Week, coinciding with their birthday.  Noah's birthday fell on Sunday, so the following week was his week at school.  The day before at his party, Sarah, Sam and I  worked on his poster helped Noah with his poster for school.  I stayed up late Sunday night baking cupcakes.  Monday Noah got to present his poster to his class.  Oh how I wish I could have seen him do this :)  His friends had a chance to ask him questions.  All I got out of it was that a lot of people liked his basketball picture and the picture of him underwater swimming.  Everyone enjoyed the cupcakes and Noah informed me, that he got to take the first bite since it was his birthday :)

Tuesday, I got to read his favorite book to his class.  Noah settled on the book, There is a Bird on Your Head by Mo Willems.  This is a really funny book, so it was a good choice.  The expressions of the characters make it so funny, so I was worried about all the kids seeing the pics and reading it in an entertaining way.  Yes, I'll admit it.  I was nervous reading to a classroom full of 4 and 5 year olds - haha!  But, it was SO FUN!  The second I walked in, Noah lit up and was so happy to see me.  I was immediately surrounded by kids.  It was picture day and all the girls were excited about their new shoes, hair bows, etc.  I successfully made the kids crack up when reading the book.  Then Miss Mary gave me another book to read to them.

Noah got to present his poster to his class again on Tuesday, because the majority of kids go on Tues/Wed/Thurs.  Monday is a smaller class day.  I managed to snap a couple pics on my phone before leaving.
