Makiya Barron is this week's Kindergarten super star! Makiya is six years
old. She lives in Rockwood, Michigan, and has one sister, Daisy, who is in
the second grade.
Makiya's favorite color is purple. Makiya really enjoys karate, dancing,
reading, singing, and playing. Her favorite sport is soccer. Makiya's favorite
subject in school is reading. Her favorite book Is "Caps For Sale".
When Makiya grows up she would like to be a dancer. Makiya's family
thinks she is a super star because she is always eager to try new things.
She is smart, energetic, beautiful, and always willing to lend a helping hand.
Her smile lights a room, and her laughter lls our hearts.
Ms. Kremer thinks Makiya is a super star because she is an excellent
reader, she is brave to come to a new school and make new friends, and
she tries her best in every subject.
