Another week has passed already! It was a busy week in Third Grade. 


We have started studying the life cycles of plants and animals! We have some plants and seeds in the classroom we are observing as they go through their life cycles. Everyone got to dissect and label all the parts of a lima bean seed, and document their scientific observations. Next, we will move on to insect and mammal life cycles - no dissecting there! 

On Monday, a new spelling packet for unit 3 will come home, at least 5 of the pages need to be done, and the packet returned by Friday. The only other homework will be a math page every night, doing just the circled problems.  

Also coming home is the October Scholastic Book Club flyer. If you wish to purchase some books, please have it back by October 26. You can order online anytime using our class code. (Q6QX2)

The fall fundraisers were sent home this week. This is a major fundraiser for our PTC, who always does such wonderful things for our school community. The packets should be sent back to school by October 3. 

Don't forget Picture Day!! 
It is this Tuesday, September 27!
