Third Grade Update

Hi Families,

Here are a few things to know:
• Tomorrow we are having a Show and Tell day. The students may bring in something to show, but it must fit in their backpack and it may not be an electronic. Please talk with your child about what they might bring. They may also tell something, too. We always love hearing good news from our class!

• Today our class heard an important presentation from the Children’s Advocacy Center. The presentation taught our students a safety rule for their body: All Kids have the Right to Protect their Body. Your child has a bookmark and a pamphlet that they should be bringing home tonight. This would be a great opportunity for you to follow up with this important conversation.

Our class earned our 10 smile reward! We will celebrate by eating lunch and reading outside. Weather permitting, we are hoping to do this tomorrow. Please send in a beach towel for your child to use outside.

Last week, we practiced area and perimeter with a hands on project. Each student designed their own garden. They were challenged to create 5 flower beds and to find the area and perimeter of each one. It was so fun to see the creativity in the way each student designed their garden! It was great practice with using rulers, too! 🙂
