This week report cards will be sent home on Tuesday for our 2nd trimester. Can't believe we only have a few months to go until summer break. Please be sure to sign and return the report card envelope with your child the next day.
The spelling packet will go home for Trapped by the Ice. This is based on a true story. If anyone has a copy of The Endurance, please send it in. It is a documentary of Shackleton's journey to Antarctica. The packet is due Friday. We will continue to work on fractions this week. We will be adding and subtracting fractions. Lit Circles are due Wednesday as usual. Please check around your house for any Lit Circle books that have not been turned in. I am missing several copies of books that belong to the school. If a book has been lost or damaged, please replace it or let me know so I can purchase it.
This week students have to decide which animal they would like to do for the mammal report. I'll be asking each child for additional resources about their mammal either with a book or another internet article. The 3rd grade team will get a letter to send home explaining the project. We will begin in class either the end of this week or next week. Most of the writing will be done in class. Students will follow a note taking guide each day. Some support will be needed at home if work is not done in class. This project isn't due until sometime in April. Date is TBD.
Hope you are having a great weekend! Please continue to send in pencils, they are very much appreciated. Thank you to Mrs. Thrasher for giving me a new printer for the classroom. This will come in handy when students need to print in color.
