January 16th-19th

***Over the break I changed the program that manages our class blog subscriptions.  I signed everyone up under the new subscription program.  You should have received an email from Feedburner that required you to activate your subscription.  If you have not activated your subscription, please do so.  If you deleted the email, please re-subscribe to our blog.  Just enter your email address on the right side of the blog in the subscribe box and then check your email for the activation link. 

What’s Happening in Our Class this Week!

• Name badges must be worn at all times during the day.  Please make sure that your child has theirs with them. 
• We will be finishing up our Martin Luther King Jr. unit  this week.  
• In math we are working on MULTIPLICATION!!!  Multiplication is a huge part of third grade and it will require extra practice at home to master multiplication.  Students need to be practicing their multiplication facts at home or they will struggle to pass off  all of their facts.  You can invest in some cheap multiplication flash cards found at the dollar store, or you can print these ones off.  Just print them off, write the answer on the back and start quizzing your child.  Multiplication Flash Cards
