End of STARR Party!

End of STARR Party!!

Hello Parents and Students, 

     STARR is officially over!!!! Due to STARR being over, the entire 3rd grade will be participating in a small party on May 5th, 2017. We are ordering pizza and providing drinks. We will have a mini dance party before the pizza comes and will watch a movie while eating.

I am so proud of each and every one of my students and I would like to show how proud I am on how hard they have been working all year. 

The students do not need to bring anything. We will have the party right after Science. 

Thank you so much students for all your hard work and dedication. I has finally paid off and now we are rolling down hill to the end of the school year. Thank you parents for all your support and cooperation this year, your child(ren) and I deeply appreciate it!

YAY WE DID IT!

Just Kidding there is always more to learn.

Spelling Homework

Spelling Homework

Hello Parents and Students, 

     I have been noticing several students not turning in spelling homework and sadly it is effecting their spelling grade. There is spelling homework everyday and is due every Friday. 

The students have spelling homework options to pick from such as:

1. Rainbow words
2. 3x each
3. Pyramid words
4. Words in sentence
5. ABC order

The students have to pick for activities to complete throughout the week. Since this has become a concern of mine, I have created a consequence until spelling grades go up. 

If a student does not turn four completed spelling assignments, they will be required to do them during recess on Friday. 

I hope that this consequence will get everyone back on track with spelling homework. 

Colorado

Hello Parents and Students,

     I have been invited to a big teacher conference in Denver, Colorado. I will not be in class Wednesday April 19th - Friday April 21st. I will be back in class the following Monday. 

I have hand picked a special substitute teacher to be with the students all 3 days. I expect all my students to behave as if it was me teaching. School will go on regularly, including classwork and homework. The other 3rd grade teachers will be in frequently to make sure the class is on task and will let me know if anything goes wrong. 

I will still have my phone so please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, concerns, or help with homework. 

I hope everything runs smoothly during those 3 days, but I know I have nothing to worry about. 

Easter Egg Hunt

Annual Easter Egg Hunt

Hello Parents and Students, 

     As you know it is April and Easter is upon us. On Thursday, April 13, 2017 during specials the whole third grade will be participating in an Easter Egg Hunt. The student do not need to bring anything. I will provide small Easter baskets for our class. 

The Easter eggs will be filled with candy and coins. The students will use the coins collected to put in their piggy bank for math class. They are able to use to coins to help with money counting and use them to get supplies from the school store.
