Interim Progress Reports

I hope you are celebrating your child's success so far in third grade.  If you have any questions, please let me know.

Scholastic Book Order

I have included two brochures for Scholastic.  If you would like to place an order, you can do so with the order form or online.  Our class code is on the back of one of the brochures.  Scholastic is offering an incentive for October.  If you spend $25, you will get a free book for your student.  If the class order is $100 or more, we will get a free book for each student.

Please place your order before October 5, 2018.

Apps Form

There is a form that needs your signature.  It has a list of apps that we may use in school.  I need written approval from you in order for your student to use these apps.  Please send the signed form in as soon as possible.

Important information from 3rd grade...

Grandparents Luncheon

We always look forward to having our grandparents on campus during this time of year.  Please make sure you check in at least 30 minutes early.  The line can get long.  If you have registered, your badge will already be printed for you in the office.  If you choose to bring lunch from outside the school, you will be able to sit down and eat sooner rather than later.  The cafeteria line gets backed up fairly quickly.

Also, if there is no room for you to sit at the table in the cafeteria, please make your way to the library.  This will be where 3rd grade will go if we run out of space in the cafeteria.  

Please do not take your grandchild's friend with you.  You may only take your grandchild.

Writing Club

Calling all Writers!  Writing Club will begin on Monday, Sept. 17 after school at 2:55. Writing Club will be every OTHER Monday.  In Writing Club, the students in  grades 2-5 free write and share their writing.  We will have a mini-lesson and talk about a writing craft or strategy. Then the writers can choose to write whatever they want.  It can be a poem, story, rap, comic, essay.... anything.  They can write individually or in groups.  They can choose to share their writing with others as well.  It is a place and opportunity for children to be creative and use their imaginations in a risk free environment.  Writing Club will take place in the library and we will walk out to the front of the school for pick up. After school, the kids will meet in the gym and Mrs. Bartholomew will pick them up to go to the library to write.  All 2-5th graders are welcome. Questions? Email pam_bartholomew@roundrockisd.rg or dana_engstrom@roundrockisd.org  

PTA Meeting

There will be a PTA meeting on September 11, 2018, at 6:00 in the cafeteria.  If you have signed up to volunteer in any way, including being a Watch DOG, there will be an orientation session during this meeting.  There will also be FREE pizza!!

Google Classroom Assignments

We have started to use Google Classroom to do some assignments on the computer.  You can have your student sign in on Google Chrome and look at the assignments.  Please do not allow your student to work on these assignments at home.  If any are not finished, we will finish them at school.  Thanks!

TAG Parents Back to School Night

This is for current TAG students only.  Back to School Night will be September 13, 2018, at 5:30 in the library.

First Week Back to School

We have had a wonderful week back at school.  We have been learning about graphs and charts in math, reading and writing workshop expectations, properties of matter, and being a good citizen.  Everyone has done a fabulous job remembering the school-wide expectations!!

I look forward to another incredible week of learning.

Have a great weekend!!
