Dear Parents:
I enjoyed conferencing with you! I value the insight you were able to give me about your child, and it was wonderful to share with you their strengths and weaknesses as third graders thus far.
We are off and running with our busy curriculum! Writing and learning our multiplication facts will be a big focus! We have learned 0's through 5's. The homework given on Monday reflects that we have introduced the 6's, 7's and 8's. Our plan is to teach and memorize our facts 0-12. Mastery of any table of facts is diplayed visually as an ice cream scoop on our classroom cones.
As we approach the holiday season, students have been writing about a favorite holiday memory. They are fun to read. In Science, we have begun a unit on Soil. There will be many activites and lots of vocabulary to learn. We even have a guest presenter coming in early Decemeber. Be looking for the related permission form. Your child begins work on a flip book tomorrow that will serve as a study guide.
Our Thanksgiving Luncheon and Program will take place next Thursday, November17th. We are looking forward to any parents, grandparents and special friends who want to join us. The schedule is as follows:
11:45-12:15 Program in the classroom #303
12:15-12:45 Lunch in the GM Cafe'
12:45-1:15 Book Fair, Veterans Display and Photos in the Media Center
Look forward to seeing you then,
Audra James and Pam Verma
