August 24th




     Can I just say that this class is the BEST?  We have had a very busy couple of weeks, and they have been handling it like professionals!  Within the past two weeks, they have done the following:

-  Completed two days of Scantron testing
-  Started a new close reading unit that works on comprehension, writing, and fluency skills
-  Learned how to add and subtract using different methods
-  Began math stations
-  Began reading stations
-  Participated in the first Best Me Assembly
-  Worked on map skills, including a fun compass activity in the hallway and designing their own maps
-  Finished our first read aloud book, Third Grade Angels
Took their first reading test on Schoology and completed their first spelling test
-  Learned about the genres for our 40 book challenge through various games and activities
-  And most recently, met our new Kindergarten reading buddies!

  Enjoy the pictures showing the fun we have had!

Is the Week Over Already?




   This short week has moved quickly!  I already love this class and am excited to see everything that we will be accomplishing this year.  

  This week they:

- went to their first library visit
- learned how to round to the tens place
- practiced addition
- made tie-dyed monsters
- formed year-long teams for behavior and academics
- lots more!

Don't forget that we will have Parent Night this coming Tuesday, August 14th.  You may come at either 6:00 or 6:35.  Enjoy the photos!
