Happy 2016! Wow, it is hard to believe we have finished our first week of the 2nd semester. It has been great busy, fun-filled week getting back into the routine of our day! Here are a few reminders/happenings coming up: BINDERS will not go home this week! Students will bring their report card home, please return their envelope as soon as you can. GOAL SETTING: we will be working on setting some goals this 9-weeks. If you have time, sit down after looking at the report card and see what kind of goals your child might want to set, and how they might achieve these goals. (goals could be academic, social, or other personal goals related to school) We are in need of some school supplies: if you are willing to donate, we need the following; low-odor dry erase markers, glue sticks, and pencils. Please ask your child if they are in need of anything else. Remember, the weather is changing, please be sure your child comes to school ready to go outside to recess each day, warm or cold weather wear. Some dates to be watching for: February 23rd, 24th are Student-led conferences; your child will be sharing and leading this conference March 31st- Natural Bridge Caverns field trip. I do not know if chaperones will be needed but as soon as I know, I will send out information. Have a wonderful weekend!

Good morning! It is hard to believe our Thanksgiving holiday is upon us. The 2nd 9-weeks is flying by! It has been an awesome week learning about equal groups, studying our multiplication facts, writing about personal experiences, and looking at how energy produces so many things. As you know, next week is a holiday and the school will not be open. The week we return, Dec. 4th, 6-week progress reports will be distributed. If you have an opportunity, over the holiday, look through the binder, return any work your child may have that is below a 70. We have 3 more weeks in this 9-week grading period. Click on classroom news to view the Third Grade Tracks! I have also added the Rumor (math strategies) and the Reading Strategy information to this page for future use. A note is going home today and in the newsletter there is a reminder to bring a flashlight to school on Monday, Nov. 30th. We will be using this flashlight in Science. I hope everyone has a fabulous Thanksgiving week! Relax, have fun, and enjoy your time with family. For those traveling to other places, safe travels to you and your family. Cordially, Mrs....

Good Morning, I hope that you have had a wonderful week! It was another busy one for us! Day of Play was on Tuesday! Thank you to those who took the time out of your busy schedule to come out and join in a night of play. I think everyone enjoyed themselves! Wednesday we had a beautiful ceremony in honor of our Veterans! Again, thank you to those of you who came to celebrate with us. We all appreciate your honor and dedication to our country. Thursday was Math Benchmark day! I am sure by now your child has come home and shared how they did. If they didn’t no worries, it is just a tool to help them and myself find where we need to focus and work. It definitely was not an easy test but they all worked very hard! Today we will have a Turkey Trot @ 1:50. We will walk around the school in honor of getting fit and staying fit. The students will earn a spirit stick for their fitness walk. Go to Classroom News to find out happenings coming up next week! I hope everyone has a fabulous weekend! It’s getting chilly so bundle up and stay warm! Have a great weekend, relax and enjoy.
