“Caps for a Cause” is now circulating around our school! Each student in 3rd grade will have a special assignment this year making sure we all help out in collecting caps and tabs. It is an amazing feeling showing others how we care for one another. I know it’s one more thing to collect and bring in, but the rewards are boundless.
We have just started a new theme in reading, INCREDIBLE STORIES, which are stories that are just too wild to believe!!! We had such a blast reading Dogzilla by Dav Pilkey. We found that Dav’s books are based off of his own pets and full of humor.
The class worked diligently on their letters to the farmer from a turkey’s point-of-view. The letters were so fun to read and their turkeys (with their faces on them) are hilarious!!! You must stop by soon to see them!
Here are the assessments that will be given this week:
Tuesday- Math Test (see below), Multiplication Test and Reading Quiz (Main Idea and
