Students took part in our school's annual LAPATHON to promote physical education awareness! Each student received a playground ball and jump rope to use to exercise at home!
Happy December, families! I hope you all enjoyed your break with your sweet families! I know the children had fun!
Looking ahead: The children will continue learning about multiplication fact patterns (lessons 6-5 through 6-8). Please continue to encourage your child to practice his/her facts every day! Students will quiz on their 6s multiplication facts next week. As scientists, students will learn about land changes (both rapid and slow). They will also take a look at natural resources and fossils. In reading, students will continue practicing summarizing and recounting stories, while working on CLOSE reading in small groups. They will revisit sequencing, as they summarize. As writers, the children will take a look at the features of opinion writing and continue learning cursive handwriting.
Our next half-day: Thursday, December 5, will be a half-day. Students will be dismissed at 11:30. Lunch will be served. If your child's transportation changes, please send a note! Interims will be issued in communication folders on December 5. Please take a moment to reflect on your child's interim with him/her.
"Being There Experience" payment: If you chose option two (to split up your field trip payments), the next payment of $20 is due Friday, December 6.
Please be sure to check out the letter regarding our winter celebration! It was sent to you in an email Tuesday morning. You will also find a hard copy in your child's communication folder this Thursday! A big thanks to Ms. Hart for organizing the party!
Thank you for all of your support during our LAPATHON! Third grade walked/ran the most laps, in support of physical education awareness! We appreciate the families, who were able to walk with us! A big thanks to Mr. Schirmer and Ms. Sarratt for the playground balls and jump ropes the kids get to keep at home, to use when they exercise!
One last note: Thank you so much for your kind words and tokens of appreciation, during American Education Week. They meant more to me than you will ever know!
I hope you all have a wonderful week! Thank you again for all of your support and enthusiasm!
The Rotary Club stopped by to donate dictionaries to everyone in our class! They were a big hit with the kids!
Maxi visited the Hanover House during his Fall Break and shared some neat photos during morning meeting! Students will note the Hanover House was built by a Huguenot. You can visit it at Clemson University! Check out some of Maxi's photos:
