Weekly Update-May 13

Announcements


We are finished with MAP testing! The third graders worked very hard all week and I am proud of them for completing their first MAP test. If your child missed any days of testing, make-ups will be next week.

You should have received a note last week about our upcoming field trip to Runge Nature Center on May 18th. Please note students will need to bring a non-perishable lunch, water bottle, and light backpack to carry everything. We will be leaving around 9:00 and should be returning around 2:30. 

You should have received an email from Mrs. Patton about our upcoming Cooking Up Fun Day for 3rd grade. If you are able to donate supplies for this deal, please sign up with the following link.


In the Classroom

In math this week, we began our final unit, Measurement. Students learned about various measurement tools and units and how to measure to a fraction of an inch.

Our chicks hatched! Of the 12 eggs we received, 11 of them hatched. Students were able to see the pips (the first crack) and a few of them actually hatching. This was quite an exciting experience! We had the opportunity to study, read to, and play with our chicks before they were picked up Friday morning. 




















Students were administered the Developmental Reading Assessment this week. In writing, we started our final writing project. Students will be making an ABC book of their third grade year. Hopefully this will be a wonderful keepsake of their year.
