CONGRATULATIONS to our class president SHIANNE! Our runner up Andrew did a fantastic job also. Both students worked very hard answering the questions from their peers. Andrew will be serving as Shianne's vice president. I am proud of all students for taking this seriously!
We had two short weeks, but a lot was done! Over this break, please have your child practice their Veterans Day poem, as well as their index card. Don't forget: The THIRD GRADE Veterans Day presentation will be on Wednesday, November 14th at 1:00. This will take place in the library. All parents are invited, as well as any veterans or current military.
LAL: We finally finished The Mouse and the Motorcycle. What a fun novel to read!!! Today, we made posters about the book and created a rubric to grade it with. I can't wait to start another novel with the students. Does anyone have the movie The Mouse and the Motorcycle? We were hoping to watch it the next time we earn a compliment party.
The third graders also continued to write their novels and are chugging along! We discussed sounds for /s/.
Social Studies: We have been working really hard on our Veterans Day program! We wrote a few sentences about Veterans Day. This week, we also had the opportunity to "vote" for president in school. I think that the students enjoying going into a booth and voting. Ask your child about this! Who did they vote for and why?
Some friendly reminders: JDRF fundraising is taking place NOW! If you would still like to submit the paper about a veteran, I will take it to hang up on Wednesday!
