Making Connections

Yesterday we read a story called Butterfly Flutter By. We tried to find connections in the book. Here is a picture to look at the connections that we wrote. Here are some examples. "I look for a butterfly, I celebrate for the butterflies,I don't give up finding a butterfly."

Rounding numbers 9-28-11

Vocabulary for 9-28-11

We are going to start posting short videos that show what we do here in school.  We know that sometimes the way we do things seem a little strange, especially when the students come home and try to explain how we did something that day.  This happens most in Math.  Today we took a simple lesson that we do a couple days a week in vocabulary.  Hope it helps!

Calendar for this Week


Monday--We had an assembly led by Mrs. Steel's class.  They talked about how to stay safe at recess.    We researched about whales on the laptops today.  Ask your third grader about it.



Thursday will be picture day.  The third graders in room 24 will be at 9:30.  Ms. G's class will go at 10:30.

Friday we will be tie dying t-shirts.  Make sure kids dress for doing a project like this.  It can be messy.
Spelling test will be this day too. Keep practicing.



Keep working on fundraiser.

Our First Assembly

Something that we are doing new this year is called PBIS.  That stands for Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports.  We have a school wide set of guidelines for all kids.  Once a week we get together in the gym and have an assembly and say the pledge together, announce the student birthdays for the week and learn about one area of the school we would like to improve.
This morning room 24 presented for the first time at the all school assembly.  The kids did a great job teaching about the rules for morning arrival.  Check out the video they made last week.  It is really something to be proud of.

First Day of School

We wrote in cursive.  We learned the letters I and T.    We had fun.  We got to do a game in Morning Meeting.  We also got to stay outside for a little longer for recess.  We learned a new game called 6 corners.  We read about a nature secret. We had fun with Mr. Melde.  We read a book called First Day Jitters.  It had a surprise at the end.  We had apples for snack.
