We are excited for Grandparent's luncheon next Monday. Please share with your child's grandparent that we are inviting the Starfish Grandparents into our classroom at 10:30 for a classroom share. The luncheon begins at 11:05 in the cafeteria. If your child does not have a grandparent joining them next Monday for lunch please know that we have talked about partnering up with a friend's grandparents for the morning.
We read one of our favorite picture books How to Babysit a Grandpa which inspired us to write a class book for our favorite starfish grandparents.
Our class book that the starfish have created is titled How to Babysit a Grandparent. Each first grader came up with their own page and ideas to babysit a grandparent. Some of the pages include:

How
to Show a Grandparent You Care
If they fall down, you can help them get back up. If they’re bleeding, you can put some
medicine on it and a band-aid on them.
When they leave, you can walk them out and sometimes they take you out
for dinner or lunch. You could say thank
you for lunch or dinner. You can ask to
hold things for them. On holidays, you
can give them presents. Some good
presents for grandparents are fragile angels, roses, Star Wars characters, and
bobbly heads of their favorite sports players.
XOXOXO means love, so give your grandparents hugs and kisses!
