PS I had a great question about a third grade reading list. Third graders usually vary quite a bit in their reading abilities. Having one list that fits everyone would be impossible. I have my favorites, but my best recommendation for you  is to let your child read what they like to read with a little push to increase the difficulty when the time is right. There is a great website called “What Should I Read Next?” You type in a favorite book and it suggest books that are similar. You can click on the hyperlink, or you can find the link on the side bar under language arts labeled, “Reading Suggestions.”

Weekend End!

I hope everyone had a great weekend full of fun. I spent lots of time with friends and family. I also watched my favorite football player in action. It is time for bed and I have lots planned for the  coming week. I just finished our birthday poster. Pretty soon it will be hanging in our classroom. Until then can you find your picture, or does your disguise even fool you?

See you Tomorrow

Mrs. H.

Homework August 20, 2013

UPDATE!!! Dang Mother Nature. After weeks of sweltering heat she pushes in a rainstorm that is covering up the moon! Take a look at the night sky and we will talk about it tomorrow!

Hello! 

Did you know that the moon has moon rise time and a moon set time just like the sun? Tonight is a full moon and the moonrise time is 7:51. In about a month the moon rise time will be late at night. Tonight is a perfect time to observe the full moon.  

Science: Observe the full moon and write three things you observed. You may write them on a paper and bring them into class, or comment on the blog.

Reading: Tonight read for six minutes. Record your reading minutes online.

Parents:

I still need 5 parents to complete the Parent Information form. I will send home printed forms for any missing tomorrow.

Just a couple of media release forms are needed. Tomorrow we will be using the computers. I can not allow any child onto a computer who does not have the form signed. I will send home the form tonight for those that I need.

Picture Day is Thursday!! Students should have brought home their picture form yesterday. If you need additional information please email me.

Thank you for sending me your children they are a great group of kids.
