Back to School!

We had a great first day of school! The children were wonderful. We talked about building a classroom community where we support, help, and learn together. The children created their own classroom community book, with an emphasis on respect, responsibility, and safety, our school rules.

Curriculum Night

Wednesday, August 20th, third grade will have curriculum night from 5-6. We will talk about what your child will be learning this year, what to expect for homework, school procedures and how to help your child. It is very important that we see parents. I hope to see everybody!

Homework this Week

This week the children will begin to bring their homework folders home.

This week our homework is reading 20 minutes each night. Please sign the Yarbrough reading card to indicate that your child has read for 20 minutes. It is not necessary to list all of the books your child read here if he/she read several short picture books. Each slot on the reading card represents 20 minutes. Your signature tells me your child completed the 20 minutes.

Please send back any forms that you have left from your registration packet.

Topics of Study this Week

Reading- Main Idea

Math- Place Value

Social Studies- Map Skills
