The Grade 3's have experienced their first week of school. The students are starting to find their way around the classroom and will continue to practice their daily routines. Each student understands that they serve an important role in the classroom. These super smart third graders came up with a set of classroom rules that they believe are extremely important in order to have a happy and welcoming environment to learn in. 3D parents should be super proud of their third grader because they are kind, helpful, and brighten up our classroom in their own special way. LITERACY We started off the week by reading the  Invisible Boy  by Trudy Ludwig. The invisible boy, Brian feels that nobody ever seems to notice hi m or think to include him in their group, game, or birthday party, until, a new student joins his class.  When Justin, the new boy arrives, Brian is the first to make him feel welcome. This story  shows how small acts of kindness can help children feel i...

LITERACY MARCH MADNESS: TOURNAMENT OF BOOKS Our second week of March Madness has been a blast. Thank you to all of our Mystery Readers for taking time to read to 3D! The students love trying to guess who their Mystery Reader will be each day based on the clues they receive each morning.  The four books that were read this week are Memoirs of a Goldfish, Miss Raffety's Rainbow Socks, School Rules! and Wild Boars Cook.

The students defined homophones as words that sound the same but have diff...

LITERACY Writing:  The students finished their elaborative detail writing project about the season of fall. I began this week by reading Thankful by Eileen Spinelli  to the class. This book inspired our follow up class discussion about things were are thankful for in our lives. The students reviewed the structure of an acrostic poem and wrote about the things they are thankful for in the style of an acrostic poem. As the students shared their poems with their peers, I have to admit that I got a little misty eyed. So sweet and thoughtful.    Reading/Phonics:  Congratulations to the second 3D student to read a total of 600 minutes at home!!!! He hopped in his car and drove to the first pit stop - Canada! During these last two weeks the grade 3s learned two new spelling rules: "Magic E" and "When Two Vowels Go Walking". The students get several opportunities to work with the spelling list words throughout the week and were given an informal test a...
