Happy Thursday Parents!

We had a wonderful (and busy!) day here in third grade! We began the day with our math test on number sense and numeration, the students all worked really hard at completing the test with their best effort and were reminded to read each question over and check their response! Most of the errors made on tests are simple counting errors!

After our test we took a quick brain break and marched around the school like soldiers, when we came back in we were more focused and ready for language! Our next focus in language will be letter writing, specifically reporting through letter writing. Students completed the OWA pre-assessment today so that I can gauge their understanding and steer the lessons in a way that meets their needs.

After language, lunch, and recess, students completed a special adjectives task! They all drew themselves on a sheet of paper and the whole class wrote down an adjective to describe that person on their sheet! We ended up with some beautiful, and meaningful pieces of work that show how much our class cares for one-another and how special each person is!















Afterward we watched a video on forces and motion filled with many different visual experiments for the students to learn more of terminology! Students also completed a worksheet to go along with the video!


We ended the day with music, and gym before agendas and heading off to kiss and ride!
Important Reminders:
  • ·         Spelling Test tomorrow (lesson 13)
  • ·         Toy and food drive is still being held.
  • ·         Lunch and afterschool activity forms and fees due
  • ·         Re-registration packages were sent home! Please sent them back to reserve your spot at SJA!! J
  • ·         Read 25 minutes (our reading challenge is going really well we have some really good readers in our class who are close to winning a prize!).

I am looking forward to seeing each and every one of you at interview time!
