Students of the Month

Sorry it has been SO long, but life happened!!!
I'm sitting at home feeling guilty about deserting my poor little blog. So I was trying to think of something to blog about (that I could include a picture with) and found my son's student of the month shirt and voila! a post was born.
Our school has two separate assemblies for ours. K-2 and 3-5. We used to give certificates for free meals at restaurants, but last year we started giving a t-shirt to each winner.
Our character word for the month and a quote are both on the back.
The teachers have one with the same front, but all the character words on the back in a puzzle.
Personally, I love our shirts for the kids. It gives them something to remember forever, not just a certificate.
We print a certificate off and take their picture in their new shirts then hang them all on a bulletin board in the lunch room.
I find it SO hard to pick just one sometimes. I try to pick good role models who behave, do their best and have good attendance.
If you have Students of the Month, how do you pick? Help me make my life easier. :)
Love,
Heather
