Newsletter Edition 15

Good afternoon,
It’s been a very busy week and we’ve got one more to go before Christmas break. 3B welcomed a new student to our class this week and we love her in our class and getting to know her! We hope she enjoys us too! In other news, we finished reading The Mouse and the Motorcycle this week and tested over it. Next Thursday the 19th is the due date for everyone’s Ralph poster projects. They brought home the instructions and Ralph they colored on Monday. I will answer any questions you may have. As always if there is a paper you want your student to redo to earn up to an 80% they may as long as it is not a test or quiz.

Happy Holidays!

Good afternoon,

 It was a fun week back after Thanksgiving break! I think most students would say their favorite part of the week was dissecting owl pellets. We experienced reconciliation this week as well as learned about St. Nicholas. Next week we will have our test over The Mouse and the Motorcycle, such a fun story. Friday will be a half day this week. Have a great weekend!

Happy Saturday!

Good afternoon,
Some fun things happened in third grade this week! It seems like this was the week for birthdays in 3B with three students bringing in treats, talk about a sugar rush! We are working on letters for our archdiocesan assessment that will be given to senior citizens who are visited by Home Instead workers. It has been really neat reading what is going into those letters in regards to who the child is and what they like to do to celebrate Christmas. We did a little better at times with following directions this week, but we are still working on using self control with our voices and hands. Lastly, one of our teacher assistants, Mrs. Borne, will begin chemo treatments on monday for cancer. We attended mass on Thursday as she received the sacrament of the anointing of the sick. We are all praying for her and wish her well! Lastly, a book order is being sent home today. If you are interested in buying any books please order online or send me the form and money by Monday, December 2nd. If you decide to buy as a Christmas present and don’t want your child to know about it I will put the books in a bag waiting in the office if you wish to do so. Here is the online information:
