Reading Logs

November reading logs are due no later than Monday, December 14 to get a free reading ticket. A January reading log will be sent home on January 4.

Polar Express Party

Thank you to all of the parents who volunteered to send in treats for our party.  Please send them to school by Wednesday, even though our party is on Thursday.  Also, we are doing a gift exchange this year so that each child can give 19 gifts to their classmates.  These gifts can be candy, a card they made at home, stickers, erasers, anything you’d like big or small. Please send a gift bag for them to be collected in anytime before December 18.

Scholastic News

This week I sent home a Scholastic News and another one will be coming home next week.  Unfortunately we will not have time to read these in class right now.  I encourage the students to read these and then they can go to Scholastic News through clever.com to watch videos and learn more about this information.  Right now in both reading and writing we are learning about informational texts.  Scholastic News provides great, true information that is relatable and relevant to 3rd grade learning.

Math Test

We’ve done some reviewing this week from Unit 2 that we had to stop just before Thanksgiving break.  Today we started the review sheet and we will finish it on Monday.  Tuesday will be the math test.  Please set some time aside during this busy time of year to look over the math review with your child.

This is all I can think of for now.  I’m sure I forgot something and will need to update you again.
