Opportunities to Give:
October 25 – November 9th  We are trying to win $5,000 from BESST Realty by bringing in the most canned foods for the local food bank. We are competing against 13 other schools and would love to show them Quest really is the best! If 3rd Grade brings in the most cans, we will also earn a free dress down day!

November 1st – November 18th  Third Grade is participating in a service learning project to help some refugee students with much needed school supplies. We are collecting the following items to help them begin their education here in the United States. 1 or 1 ½ inch binders, spiral notebooks, composition notebooks, fine tip Expo markers, pencils, line paper, highlighters, personal pencil sharpeners, gently used books, glue sticks and 1 centimeter graph paper. If you are able to donate any of these we would love to give them a fabulous delivery of supplies.

November 1st – November 29th POQA Holiday Basket Fundraiser
POQA is planning a fun activity for the students where they can try to win a fun basket. These baskets are being created by each classroom, and our classes them is “It’s All About the Chocolate”. We are looking for anything chocolate to be donated to be included in our basket.

HOMEWORK CHANGE
Please note!  When you do your spelling sorts,  report your reading for the week at the bottom of the Google Classroom document that you submit.  You will NO longer need to go to the Google Form if you just add it to the bottom of the document you are already turning in online.

Homework
Reading:
Reading everyday helps increase a child’s vocabulary, knowledge and the ability to increase comprehension. It’s amazing how many new words can be learned in a year, just by reading 20 minutes a day. I think reading is my favorite part of homework! Please don’t ever miss reading your 20 minutes a night.

Math:
When logging into Prodigy, please make sure you are connected to the class. I can see that several of you are in the game and completing math problems, but you’re not completing the assignments. Please continue to log the nights you work in Prodigy by clicking on the Homework tab and then the homework reporting tab.

Spelling:
Spelling:Directions for the spelling sorts and a sample document of what spelling will look like at the end of the week are both available here: Spelling Sort Directions and Spelling Homework Directions
There is no need to submit a spelling entry on the homework form, as the submission in Google classroom will serve this purpose.

Here is the sort for this week:
