The squirrels at Carolina Wildlife Center greatly appreciated all of the acorns our third graders collected, when we dropped off the donation Saturday! The staff and volunteers were very thankful, too. Be sure to visit the Center's site to learn more ways you can help our local wildlife!
Students took time to self-score and reflect on their final narrative writing pieces last week! Reflection is an important part of the writing process.
Hi, families! I hope you all are enjoying your week!

Report Cards: As always, the end of a nine weeks is a great time to reflect on your child's progress, both academically and behaviorally. Please be sure to set expectations and goals with your child for the second nine weeks. Although third grade can be a difficult transition year, we expect students to develop strong study habits and increase rigor, which will help them down the road in the upper grades. Encourage your child to find a quiet place to complete study guides in a timely manner, practice multiplication facts daily, and discuss what he/she has learned with you each day. Please sign your child's report card cover and return it to school. You may keep his/her report card.
Fall back: Don't forget to turn your clocks back one hour Saturday night (or Sunday morning)! Enjoy the extra hour of sleep!
Looking ahead to next week: As historians, students will continue their unit of study on the Colonial Period. As mathematicians, they will learn about patterns in multiplication. We will be using the Envision curriculum for this unit, so please see the family letter below. In reading, students will learn about making predictions, cause/effect relationships, and summarizing. As writers, they will learn about different types of sentence structures and the use of conjunctions. Students will wrap up their Veterans Day letters, as well.
