"The birds are gone, The ground is white,
The winds are wild, They chill and bite;
The ground is thick with slush and sleet,
And I barely feel my feet."
We had a fabulous start to our week! Students worked on vocabulary, language arts and a text feature activity to begin the day. We also had a spelling pretest that focused on Homophones. Our spelling test will be given on Friday. Students have a spelling assignment each night this week for homework.
We will continue with Unit 5 in math this week. Please see your child's Home Link for our daily Learning Objective. They will have homework each night. Students have really been enjoying our new station routine in math. I'm grateful for such a flexible, independent group of third graders who can handle transitions so well.
Students are loving our Simple Machine and Invention Unit. They will continue to research topics for our Project Based Learning (PBL) experience this week. We are using a variety of books, reference materials and online databases for this project.
Scholastic book orders went home today. Our classroom code is HB244. All orders are due by February 18th. Students who place their order online will receive a free book!
Report cards went home this past Friday. Please sign and return the gold envelope at your earliest convenience. The report card and Star reports can stay home for your records.
Have a lovely week! :)
