Announcements:​
  • Wow!  Thank You Parents! I am truly amazed by the number of gifts I received from all of you for the holiday season. Your generosity and kind words is truly heart warming. I can't thank you all enough. :)
  • Awesome Day with Kinder Buddies: On Wednesday afternoon, we spent some time creating a fun, wintry picture with our Kinder Buddies. I love to watch my students work with younger students in our school. They are such amazing teachers, leaders and role models for our Kinder Buddies. Pictures below.
  • Great Third Grade Winter Party:​  Thank you all so much for donating items and volunteering your time to our Winter Party. A special "Thank You" to our classroom mom, Indu (Krishna's mom) for helping to get the word out with emails to all our parents about the party and the Party Supply Sign Up. 
  • Bluebonnet Book Program: Our class's goal for each student is to read 5 books! The Bluebonnet Program goes until mid-January so we have plenty of time to read, read, read.  So let's get to it! Last day to complete any bluebonnet book quiz is January 25th.

  • Writing: This week our focus was on having some fun writing about the snow/winter season using a variety of "writing prompts" to start our stories. 
  • Reading: We continue to read and practice our comprehension strategies as we read. This week we used a "Padlet" to collect our reading responses this week. Our next unit when we return will be Biographies!

We reviewed this Geometry vocabulary this week: polygon, congruent, similar, 2-dimensional shapes, diagonal, triangle, quadrilateral (squares, rectangles, trapezoids), hexagon, pentagon. We had fun with the "4 Triangle Challenge" today!
  • Science: We reviewed and took our Unit 5 DCA test this week. When we return from winter break we will dive into our Soils Unit.
