Rounding

Kate and Jadyn show us how to round. Well done, girls!

Ordering Numbers

Joey and Sebastian show us how put numbers in order from greatest to least. They used an iPad and did a great job!

Running the Mile!

Book orders and Picture day

Just a quick reminder that book orders are due tomorrow (Monday). You still have time to place an order online and I will submit everything in the afternoon. Also, Picture Day is this Tuesday! Please send the form back tomorrow or Tuesday morning.
Have a great week!

Working hard!

Busy week ahead!

We have a busy week ahead of us, but many fun things as well! Last week, we spent much of our time getting to know each other and figuring out how we are going to work together this year. This week the class will get to practice all that they learned when we dig into the curriculum. Students will bring home red homework folders each Monday. Please check the folders and read the note that explains what to do each week.

In other news, check out what was delivered to us on Friday afternoon!

I didn't realize how much I used the SmartBoard to teach until I didn't have one. Thank you to Mrs. Swanson for getting our classroom one so quickly! A couple of boys asked me if they could try to install it themselves. Tempting, but no! It should be up and running by the end of the week!

Monday afternoon we have our first character assembly and Friday is already the Wolf Ridge fundraiser kick-off!

Looking forward to a fun week!

First Day!

We had a terrific first day in 3rd grade. We started to get to know each other by doing a scavenger hunt!


The class spent some time organizing their desks and labeling folders...and smiling!



We went on a walk with Mrs. Swanson and she showed us the playground boundaries and told us all about the new equipment.


Later, we spent some time coming up with responsibilities for the school year!



Please check your child's backpack for a note with a few reminders for tomorrow!

Summer Souvenir Sharing

Each morning our class will have a morning meeting which consists of 4 parts: greeting, sharing, activity, news/announcements. I'd like to invite each student to participate in the sharing for this week! Please bring in a small souvenir (postcard, seashell, shirt, etc...) to show the class. You are also welcomed to tell a story about what you did! We will have 5 or 6 students share each morning.
I am looking forward to hearing about the summer fun!

A good night!

It was great to see so many students and families at open house last night! We got lots of comments on our view from 209. I think the kids were more excited about the new playground than anything else!

I'm looking forward to Tuesday and seeing all of the students together! Remember to fill out the forms and send them back to school. If you weren't able to make it to Open House, I will send them home with your son/daughter on Tuesday.

Enjoy the long weekend!
