Here are some things that are happening in 3rd grade.
Inventor Living Museum
Yesterday, your student brought home a letter regarding our Living Museum that will happen on March 2. Your student will be researching an inventor/innovator. Each student will present the information they gather at the living museum. Each student will be required to have some sort of prop to go with the speech that they will prepare in class. Students will need to practice their speech at home. More details are in the letter that was in the Thursday folder. This is an exciting time as we learn to research!!!
Valentine's Day Party
On February 14, we will have our Valentine's Day party. You student will have a class list today in their blue homework folder. If your student would like to make Valentines for their classmates, that would be great! I do ask that if your child participates, he/she gives a Valentine to each student in the class. I do not want anyone to feel left out. If your student decides not to participate in giving Valentines, that's OK, too. We will have a small party at the end of the day. We will exchange cards, have a small snack, and, if time allows, play a game of Valentine Bingo. We will need only a few parents to help with this party.
