Our field trips was a huge success! The play at the children’s theater was very entertaining and educational–everyone loved it! We even did a question and answer session with the actors after.
At the capitol building we ate lunch and then talk with the Attorney General. He talked to us about internet safety. In his office is a charcoal and pencil portrait of Abraham Lincoln that a mother from one of our Quest 3rd graders did!
Thank you all so much for your support, especially those parents who came and helped us at the field trip. Pictures will follow shortly!

Every Christmas, the third grade hosts a Grinch party rewarding all the students who were able to earn hearts for being respectful, responsible, and kind. We will be doing Grinch activities this week and next week culminating in the Grinch Party. At the party we will watch the cartoon version of “How the Grinch Stole Christmas,” eat green popcorn, and make Grinch pills (sixlets). The party will be on Thursday December 18th.
Tomorrow is a dollar dress down day and a short day! It is also the beginning of Thanksgiving break. I just wanted all my students to know how thankful I am for them. They bring me so much joy and happiness. I love my job because I get to be with them every day. I hope everyone has a wonderful, safe Thanksgiving!!!!
