 Who Gets End-of-Year School Awards
(This article is re-printed from the May 2009 newsletter - we feel that it is worth repeating!)
As the school year comes to an end, most students (and many parents) are looking forward to summer activities such as swimming, camping, vacationing, unscheduled free time, sleeping in, and, most of all, no homework and no assignment deadlines!
The last day of school often celebrates the many accomplishments that have been achieved throughout the year with class parties and awards ceremonies.
How many of you remember receiving awards and what that felt like? How many of you never once received a school award...what did that feel like?
I (Mariaemma) happen to have the perfect learning style formula that made me an A student from the time I started kindergarten. Every year, I received award after award. I remember during my 8th grade year one of my classmates saying to me, "Please, please, let me win the 'read most books' award. You always get lots of awards, please let me get this one." So I did. I made sure that I read fewer books than she did, and she got that award.
What is it like for students to watch others get award after award and never receive one themselves? What is it like for the parents of those students?
Victoria and I attended an awards ceremony a few years ago at a school that is known for valuing individual learning styles. I was looking forward to the event, thinking that every child would be given some acknowledgment for his/her special skills and talents.
As it turned out the first grade teacher began the program by explaining that in every classroom there are those few children who stand out from the rest - those who are destined to be the presidents and the CEOs, the leaders - those who will accomplish great things, those who will do something worthwhile, those who will make some kind of difference in the world. He then proceeded to honor four students in his first grade class who apparently fit that description.
It still brings tears when I think of how the rest of the children and their parents must have felt. I guess this teacher thought it was possible, and perfectly acceptable, for him to make the decision as to the future success and leadership abilities of these 6 and 7 year-olds. And, yet, this is when the seeds of success versus failure first get planted - very early in a child's school career. Some students are labeled smart, capable, competent, motivated, will go far...and others are labeled slow, lazy, unmotivated, disruptive, learning disabled, ADD, or just average.
What would the awards ceremony be like if every child received acknowledgment for his/her unique gifts? No one would be left out! The Performing student would get an award for bringing fun to the classroom, the Relating student might receive an award for bringing compassion to the classroom. The Inventing student could be honored for discovering new ways of doing things. The Sketching learner could be acknowledged for providing great illustrations for a project. What about the student who has great ideas, the one who is first to lend a hand, the one who has a beautiful singing voice?
When parents and teachers acknowledge the special gifts a child has, they convey the message, "You are special, you are gifted, you are loved. Take your gift into the world and share it with others." This is the message that allows children to develop into successful, productive, and compassionate adults.
Every June I am hopeful that more teachers will honor every child in the classroom for his/her unique gifts. If you are a parent reading this and your child is not acknowledged, then I recommend that you have your own awards ceremony at home. Let your children know how much you value and celebrate them. It's a great way to start off the summer!

Are you a veteran homeschooler...wanting more for your kids?
Are you dealing with a child who hates school or would prefer to "daydream" all day, or is "behind" in reading or some other skill?
