Celebrating Birthdays

When it's a student's birthday, I put a Star Student chair cover on their chair and they may bring in treats to share with the class at the end of the day.

I can't figure out how to rotate it (sorry!)

I want to make sure all students get their own special time to celebrate their birthday with the class. For students whose birthdays are in the summer, we celebrate their half birthday during the school year. The kids really enjoy this! Some parents even get on board and celebrate half birthdays with their kids at home too. Today, it was one of my student's half birthday and his dad surprised him with this half birthday present at the end of the day.

 A half wrapped box with half of a bow and half of a card, 

containing half of a: Coke, hat, $10 bill, and Reese's. It also had a half dollar coin and a roll of pennies (1/2 of a dollar). The student opened it at the end of class. All the students loved it! Dismissal was a mess, but it was completely worth it for all those memories.
