Thursday 12/13 –  Choir Concert Assembly
Friday 12/14 – We will have a Grinch Party on Friday, December 14th.  This is a Dollar Dress Down Day, and we will encourage the students to dress up in their “Grinch Gear”.  We will be serving “Grinch Popcorn” (sugared popcorn colored green) during the party.  Please let us know if you have a problem with your child eating this.  We will also do a White Elephant gift exchange on this day.  Please bring a wrapped gift to school on or before this day.  Thanks!

**Grinch Party help:  We will not need help on the day of the party, but it would be greatly appreciated if any parents are willing to make green sugar popcorn for the party.  Please let me know if you can help out with that.

**White Elephant Gifts:  Please do not spend a lot of money on your gift!  Be creative!  Use something around your house, a toy you don’t play with anymore, a Dollar Store gift, etc.  Please bring a gift that the other third grade students would want to steal from the other students.  Let me know if you need me to provide a gift for your child.  

Reading Homework
Our goal is to have student’s read 20 minutes per night.  Please make sure that your child is recording their minutes on the monthly reading log.

Math Homework
Each student will need to get onto www.reflexmath.com (access under student links on the Quest website, or on the blogs sidebar under Class Links) and complete their “green light” Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday (3 sessions). Just in case students don’t remember, the class username is “Beckstead3″ and all passwords are “rams”.  If students do not complete Reflex at home they will complete it during recess time.
