The last week in Third Grade was great!

  We have been working hard to develop a classroom community that is a kind, respectful and fun place to learn.  We have had many good discussions about what our classroom values should be, and are developing a set of classroom expectations for all of us to follow, in order to be good friends and classmates to each other.

     This first full week means we will start spelling! This week we start with short a and i vowel pattern words.
     Each Monday, students will go home with their individualized spelling lists and a spelling homework packet that will be due each Friday.  On Fridays, we will have a spelling test on those words.

     Open house is this Thursday, September 15, from 4:30-6.  There is a community dinner in the cafeteria from 4:30-7 as well, so families can come tour the classroom, then go get a bite to eat.  I am looking forward to seeing everyone there!
