Congratulations everyone! You made it a whole week! This whole third grade thing is a breeze after the first week :). This week we have learned magic tricks, done art projects, started cursive, and many more great things!
We will be starting homework on Monday. Everyone will be on the same sort to begin with this week. I will be putting the homework on the blog early this week so that you have a chance to ask questions about it if you need to. Please let me know if you have any questions!
It was so great to meet everyone at Back to School Night yesterday!!! If you didn’t get a chance to make it here are some of the things we talked about.
Please make sure you are familiar with the information on the disclosure statement.
As per our charter, parents are invited to provide volunteer hours. The sign up for some of the jobs in our classroom can be found here Volunteer Sign Up
This is just a reminder about Back to School Night tomorrow. I am really excited to meet everyone!! To make sure everyone gets all pertinent information I am going to have 15 minute sessions (with a little built in wiggle room) throughout the evening starting at 5:35. I have prepared a short powerpoint that hits all of the highlights of the disclosure statement and some contact info. It should last about 8 minutes, leaving a little time for questions and introductions at the end. I will be closing the door when we start each session. Last year I didn’t feel like I was able to talk to everyone and get them up to speed with the open house approach. You only need to attend one of the session, but you are welcome to stick around for more. Let me know if this works for you!
Welcome to our class blog! I am so excited to get ready for the new school year. I met some of you on the last day of school and am really looking forward to meeting the rest of you. Remember Back To School Night is Monday, August 17 starting at 5:30. Have a great last couple days of summer!
Just a quick reminder about our pizza party on Tuesday! Students do not need to bring a lunch that day. We will be having pizza, juice, and cookies. If there are any questions or concerns, let me know!
I had so much fun doing our play this year! Our class worked so hard and everyone could tell at our performance. It went fantastic!! The recording will be up this later week. Here is a picture in the meantime. 🙂 Special thanks to Brittany Hale for making the set look amazing! Thank you to all the parents who helped and supported!
We had an amazing time at the Living Planet Aquarium!! We were able to explore the aquarium and go to a class about the tides from Scott! Thank you so much to all students and parents for making it a wonderful, memorable day!! Parents, you have any other fun pictures from the field trip I would love to post them! You can send them to nyoung@questac.org.
Just a few reminders for tomorrow: 1-First of all, each student will be coming home with their tie dye t-shirts tonight. The students need to wear them with jeans tomorrow (Dress Down). 2-Every child needs to be at the Roy Front Runner station no later than 8:15 am. 3-Each child needs to bring a backpack with their lunch and a water bottle. A jacket might be a good thing to wear as well. They will be carrying their own things for the entire day. **Please make sure all students go to the bathroom before they get to the Front Runner Station. The train is not equipped to handle over 100 students going to the bathroom.
DON’T FORGET THAT YOU WILL PICK YOUR CHILD UP FROM THE FRONT RUNNER AT 3:45 PM!!
We are so excited!!!!
We had to change our 3rd Grade Party to next Tuesday, May 26th. POQA will be feeding the students pizza for lunch, so your children do not need to send lunch that day. We will also be having some activities that day and watch a movie together as a grade. Students need to bring their tie dye shirts with them on this day. They will get to wear them over uniforms during the 3rd grade games. Thanks!
I will be sending home the tie-dye shirts on Thursday. Please have your student wear the shirt for the field trip on Friday. We will also be bringing them back to sign on Tuesday. Tuesday is our pizza party from winning the box top competition! We will be wearing these shirts on the last day of school for our class picture and our field day activities.
