Congratulations to Ashlyn, our Golden Paw winner for 3rd grade this week!! Excellent job on making good choices!
This is a week of new beginnings. We are starting new chapters in several subjects this week. We will be studying volcanoes and earthquakes in Science, beginning a new unit in Reading starting with a story that is a Japanese version of Little Red Riding Hood, testing on Navajo Indians later in the week during Social Studies, finishing up probability in Math and adding journal writing into our Language Arts curriculum. Now that the ISATS are over, we can expand our horizons and take on a few more projects. We will be putting together our Snow Days essays/videos and working on summaries for the book "Mr. Popper's Penguins". We have many more projects in the planning stages for the coming weeks.
Starting next week, Mrs. Simpson will be taking over the teaching duties for a few weeks as part of her student teaching responsibilities. I will still be present every day, helping individual students and doing a little "guest" teaching once-in-a-while. (: I plan on being a very active participant.
We are all very excited to be having recess outside again. Please dress your child accordingly, as the weather is changing and the students will be going outside when possible! Hooray for spring!
