Wow! This week has been full of lots of fun and excitement. We began the week in research in the library with Mrs. Watts. The students made some awesome Padlets about different countries. This week we also got to celebrate Perfect Attendance with Lunch and a Video in the classroom. The students enjoyed Frosty the Snowman and conversation. Our goal is to reach PERFECT ATTENDANCE faster the next time. This one took us longer than 9-weeks to get. Students earn this each day we have ALL students present! The students also enjoyed “Hour of Coding” in the computer labs this week. Be sure to ask them about what they were building! This week was an honor for me as I was surprised with a very prestige award. On Tuesday night, I was given the PTA Life Membership Award. It was a great honor accepting this award and I know it is because of the awesome Huebner Community that I received this. Thank you to all of you for making each day a great day to come to work. I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend! Stay warm! Cordially, Mrs. Hidalgo...

Wow, what an amazing week back! It just excites me when the kids are motivated and excited to learn! We have been busy learning multiplication, using skip counting and repeated addition to solve problems. The students have also been busy writing expository drafts. They are persuading and telling the rest of us why we should like or do something they believe in. Again, so proud of them and their willingness to learn and try new things. This week we finally made our “Perfect Attendance” award. So next Wednesday, December 7th we will have lunch and a movie in the classroom. Our goal is to make our perfect attendance award quicker this next time. No absences and no tardies get us 1 step closer each day to the reward. As your child is sharing what they have learned this week, be sure to ask them about the continents and oceans and how they are going to remember the 7 continents and 4 oceans. They had fun learning an acronym and way to remember these important landmarks. I hope that your Thanksgiving holiday break was relaxing and peaceful! We are nearing the end of the 2nd 9-weeks so be sure to be checking your child’s binder and the Parent Portal for information on missing assignments and grades. As always, please contact me with any questions. Have a nice weekend! Hopefully it won’t be as rainy and cold as they are predicting! Cordially, Mrs....

Finally, Autumn is upon us, well at least for now! The kids have really enjoyed the change in the weather and being able to go outside and play without sweating. Along with the weather change, this week, the students spent two hard days completing the Math and Reading Benchmarks. I am very proud of their stamina and desire to do their 100% best. The benchmarks will be a great reflection on goal setting and working towards continued growth in 3rd grade skills. I think they rocked the benchmarks this week! Way to go!!! I am already seeing a lot of desire in the students to work on math skills through the Think Through Math program. Wednesday we took our initial assessment and now they are enjoying working through math problems ,while getting to build an avatar. A letter went home on Thursday about the program and how it works. Please contact me with any questions or concerns. Thank you to all of you and your family members who are Veterans. We appreciate your dedication and time served to protect us and our country. November 11th, we honor all of you ! You can click on Classroom News to read and find-out all of the great, upcoming events in 3rd grade and at Huebner. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
