Just a few more notes before we wrap up the year...

Hello students and parents!

Students- I hope you are enjoying your final days of third grade. I also hope the end-of-the-year AR trip was amazing for my excellent readers! Thank-you to everyone for your continued committment to learning each day you spend with me. :)

Parents- Friday will be a half day of school. We will hold our elementary awards assembly at 8:30 am in the new (big) gym. Students may be released to parents following the ceremony, however, please make sure you sign your child out with me before you go.

Finally, thank you to all my students and their parents. You have made this a wonderful year for me and I appreciate each and every one of you!

HAVE AN EXCELLENT SUMMER!!! Don't forget to read please!

Final Week of School 2011

Hello parents and students!

Congratulations on making it to the end of the school year. As we finish our last week of instruction, I would like to intersperse our lessons with fun activities such as movies and games. If students/parents would like, you are welcome to bring a movie or game from home that you would like to share with the class. I only ask that the movie be rated G and that the board game not contain violence. (VHS or DVD movies are both fine.)

Thank-you for sharing and I look forward to having a great final week together!

Homework 05-16-11

As we count down the 10 final days of third grade, all of our homework with be a review of various topics we have covered throughout the year. If you find that you struggle with a homework assignment, this offers you an excellent opportunity to review and relearn the topic before you go on to fourth grade. Please let me know if you have any major issues, so that I can address them with you in class.

Tonight, you have two review math worksheets to complete. Please read the directions carefully.

PARENTS FYI: I am sending home numerous graded papers tonight. Please look them over and have your student make any needed corrections. Also, please note that some of the papers need to be signed and returned tomorrow. Thanks! : )
Thanks and have a wonderful evening!

Homework 05-12-11

In preparation for tomorrow's spelling test the homework for tonight will be to write 10 unique, complete sentences using at least 10 spelling words. These sentences will be judged on the following: capitalization, punctuation and, of course, correctly spelling the spelling words. Also, make sure each sentence makes sense. You are welcome to use more than 10 spelling words, but please underline them in each sentence so I can easily identify the 10 words.

Finally, please read AR (for the last night!!!) Remember that tomorrow, all library books are due back and must be returned to the library by 3:00 pm. AR will close at 3:00 pm tomorrow. The end of the year goal for third graders is 100 points and at least 80% correct. Right now we have 8 students who have reached this awesome goal. I am sooo proud!

Quick note: I will be out tomorrow, so the final AR reports and the behavior reports will be sent home on Monday, 5-16-11.

Have a nice night!
Mrs. Anderson :)
