We will have our end of the 6 weeks testing called Curriculum Based Assessments next week.
Reading is Tuesday, September 27th,
Math is Wednesday, September 28th,
Social Studies is Thursday, September 29th

Please help your children arrive to school before 7:55am and have a great breakfast.

September 26th through September 30 Galloway 3rd grade

NO SCHOOL MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 26TH Way to go kids - have lots of fun and bring back great stories to share on Tuesday!

This week in math we are going to continue working on rounding, so please give your kids a chance to round for you. For instance, if something costs 59 cents it would round to 60 cents. Please give your child many real life chances to round!

We have a rounding jingle to help them remember the rule.

5 or more raise the score

4 or less, let it rest.

Digits to the right of the underlined digit become zeroes!

Science this week is the water cycle.

Social Studies continues our study of the our community.

In reading we are still looking for the author's purpose for writing the story or for making a character act a certain way. When your child is reading each evening, ask what the author's purpose was. We also are working with retelling the story in sequential order, so ask for the main details in order.

We are looking forward to a great week of learning! Thanks for supporting your child in this learning. If you have any questions, please call or email.

Your third grade team,

We are wishing Mrs. Wuest a wonderful year in Second Grade.  We are welcoming Ms. Paine to our awesome team!  Ms. Paine's students will be joining her in the library for Open House.  We look forward to seeing everyone tonight at Meet the Teacher Open House!  :)

Third grade changes

It is with sadness in my heart that I say goodbye to these 3rd graders that I have become attached to these 2 weeks.  I know they will benefit more by being in a full 3rd grade class.  Please let them know I, Mrs. Wuest, would love for them to stop by in the morning and say hi.  I will be thinking of them as I continue to teach 2nd grade and they go on the remainder of their 3rd grade journey.  This year's going to be great!!!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Kimberly Wuest
