Weekly Update 10/7 - 10/11

Hello 3N Families!

I hope you had a wonderful long weekend with your families. I hope you found time to have fun and relax and recharge!

Here's a look at some of the learning we did in our classroom last week!

  • We looked into the real story of the First Thanksgiving and considered the perspectives of both the Native Americans and the settlers
  • We discussed student council speeches, shared, and voted on our student council representative!
  • Worked on challenging math tasks to show our learning of multiplication and division - we are working on showing all of our work, drawing neat pictures, and making sure we answer the question.
  • Started our journey with Choose Love! I will be emailing home a letter introducing the Choose Love program to you so you are able to discuss with your children at home.
  • We worked on writing stronger 3rd grade sentences during our literacy centers - a sentence needs to say who or what and what they are doing! It also always needs a capital letter and punctuation.
  • We learned about long a spelling patterns and practiced them during literacy centers.

I will be emailing home a conference sign up. Part of these will be student-led so your child will attend. If there is not a time on the sign up that works for you please let me know.
