The first two days of school were a success!  It was great to see all the smiling faces and get to know each other a little bit. We have a great group of students!

This upcoming week students will start getting math homework each night that reinforces what we learned in class that day.  They are responsible to do their best work independently, and bring it back the next day. If they don't understand something, we will go over it in math next day. Spelling packets will go home at the start of each week and will be turned in by Friday.

 We will also start our Third Grade book club this week! Our class will have a reading club log that they bring home at the start of each week, with the goal of reading at least 20 minutes each night. The best way to become a better reader is to READ READ READ READ!! All reading minutes count, so anything they read, audiobooks, and books you read to them all add up. Students keep track of their reading times and bring the signed form back at the end of each week.  100 minutes read = 1 sticker, Once they get 5 stickers, they get to pick a book from my prize book bin to keep!

Please don't forget about our Open House - September 15 from 4:30-6.  There will be a spaghetti dinner in the school cafeteria from 4:30-7.  I hope to see all of you then!
