							| Stellar students 
 |  
							| My school has recently come up with a program that they call Stellar Students.  Its essentially a student of the month award...with each month having a different contest for a certain area.  This months contest was for handwriting (tho really for the youngest group it was for tracing -_-;;).  I think this could be a good idea if the school does it right.  Next month (October) I am in charge of the competition.  However, Im not so sure what competition I want to do. 
 I was thinking of doing a presentation (of a worksheet), singing, or a Show and Tell contest.  Students will be judged on clarity, fluency, body language, confidence, and a few other things.  Im wondering if anyone has any ideas for this sort of thing or has any experiences that you could share.  I was sort of "volunteered" for this without knowing it.  Yay!

							| We do student of the week at my school and it �s not always about academics (as in good grades). Sometimes it �s also about attitude, behavior, and improvement. |  16 Sep 2010

							| We do something like that too.  It �s the Model Student program.  Things like being at school on time, never quarreling, etc. |  16 Sep 2010

							| What about individual or group lip-sync and/or dance routines?   All to songs in English, of course.   |  16 Sep 2010

							| Please make sure that it is possible for students who can never get any other awards to have a chance. So something like *first hand up for a question (even if the answer is way off-beam) or  *bringing a pencil to school every day or  *quietest student or  *loudest singer or  *most craziest suggestion or  *giving a wrong answer that gave the teacher some ammunition for a new teaching point. Good luck Joy |  16 Sep 2010
