Hi Everyone!

Thank you for an AMAZING Science Festival.  The projects were outstanding. We had a lot of Upper Elementary classes visit and the teachers were amazed by out class’ hard work and efforts.  Thank you to those parents who came and supported!

Friday’s game day was a great success.  All students followed the electronic policy and we all had a great time without any problems.  We will most likely have another game day the last week of school during Spirit Week.

Hi Everyone!

Our class worked hard on earning a game afternoon before Spring Break began.  This Friday, I have scheduled the time for our class to have some game time.  Your child will bring home a bright orange paper for you to sign, should you allow your child an electronic to be brought.  Please read it carefully, as the school will NOT be responsible should something happen to your child’s electronic.

Students may bring:

board games

card games

ipods, Kindles, ipads, tablets, laptops etc.

Legos

We will have stations in the room for each area.  All electronics will stay in one area, Legos on a rug so no pieces get mixed up etc.

Orange forms need to be in by Friday.  No paper, no electronic.  Grace and Courtesy/net safety  rules apply to all internet/app browsing.  If you have any questions, please email me 🙂

Hope everyone is enjoying Spring Break!

Tuesday is our Science Festival!  We will start at 1pm and go until around 2:30pm. Please have all projects in by Tuesday.

The 3rd grade math test has been changed to May 12th.  It will still be in the morning and run until noon time, however, students are not timed on either the language or math test.

Would anyone like to help with the 3rd grade breakfast for April 16th? If you would, please sign up!  Our language test starts at 8:45am.  So that 3rd graders have enough time to eat, if you have a 3rd grader, please have them to school by 8:15am (when doors open).  If you are wanting to help make breakfast, please be at the school by 7:50am.

3rd Grade Breakfast Sign Up!

Happy Easter!
