Parents,
The third graders have been working so hard! I am very proud of them! We completed state testing last week. They did AMAZING on their science fair projects! We learned about a LOT of different types of animals. Thank you for your help with completing the projects.
This week we've been fastbridge testing. We'll finish this up next week (it's been hectic with program practice this week.) We also did the religion ARK test. This was the first year of doing this. It was about 50 questions on the ipads, and the students did a great job focusing.
We're finishing up our unit on fractions, and will start graphs and charts next week. We're doing a novel study in LA called White Fur Flying. We're finishing our unit on the continents and oceans and working on our map skills in social studies. In religion we finished learning the Ten Commandments and will take a quiz probably next week. Each student got a copy of the commandments and they are listed in their planner as well.
PLEASE keep encouraging your child to read around 15 minutes each day. Reading logs due each Tuesday. Last day to take AR tests is May 16th.
THURSDAY MORNING 4/27, we're headed to the high school for program practice from 8:15-10:00 a.m. Program is Thursday eve @ 7@ AHS; students should arrive at 6:45 dressed in school uniform. They have been working hard and I know you'll enjoy their singing!
Spelling test this Friday, next Friday and the following Friday.
NO spelling list the last week of school.
