Welcome back to our blog and thank you for
visiting!
We have a lot going on this week… Here’s the plan!
MAP testing – Ask your
child when their testing will be since each teacher will be taking it at a
different time. J It is 2 separate days and will cover all concepts in
3rd grade math and reading.
AR goals – All AR
goals have been set for this 4th six weeks. Please encourage your
child to read at least 20 minutes every night. Not only does reading every
night help your child become an even more AWESOME reader, it also builds
confidence, builds vocabulary, helps the imagination, and creates students with
a thirst for learning! J
3rd Six Weeks Awards – This will be held this Friday, January 15th
at 9:00 for 3rd grade and 8:15
for PreK, Kinder, 1st & 4th.
Your child should have been notified if they are
getting an award so you can attend. J
College Day – This TUESDAY
is college day! Please encourage your child to wear his/her/your (haha)
favorite college shirt to school with standardized dress bottoms. J
RANDOM REMINDERS…
COATS! – Please have
your child bring a warm coat to and from school. We know it is getting cold
outside and we do still continue recess unless it is below 33 degrees. Please
send it to school with them! J
MLK Day – In Honor
of Martin Luther King Jr. we will not have school on January 18th.
STEAM challenge – This
week we will begin creating, building, and testing our balloon powered car!
Students have been asked to bring repurposed items to use for their groups
creation. We sent home a sheet explaining a little more! Please look for that
in your child’s PONY notebook. Please encourage your child to think outside the
box and have fun with this! J We will be testing out all 3rd grade groups
on Friday.
