What a Great Week!

         This week went great!  Students are beginning to understand what is and will be expected of them this year.  Third Grade is tough!  We add two hardback books and tons more responsibility.  Although some things are harder, it has been a lot of FUN! 

          Remember if you need to check your child out early, please either send me a note that morning or a quick email.  I will have your child packed up and ready  when you arrive.  Students are writing down their own homework, and this takes time.  Please do not rely on your child to “tell” me what the plans are for the afternoon if things are different than normal.

          Please remember to check over your child's homework and homework folder each night. You will not always know when I will be taking a daily grade, so it is a good idea to review homework.  When we work on something in class and check it together, we put it in our homework folder.  So things with  stickers or red marks can stay at home.  Go over any of these with your child for a review.  We will have our Reading Vocabulary Quiz and Comprehension Quiz on Thursdays and Spelling Tests  on Fridays.  This week, our Spelling Test and Reading Quiz went well.    I am very proud of our hard work.  What a terrific start!
