Last Week of 3rd Grade

Only 3 days until the end of third grade! It doesn't seem possible. We will be doing some fun activities next week to wrap up the year. 

3rd Grade Autographs
Tuesday the class will meet with all the other third grade classes to sign autographs. If your child bought a yearbook, please make sure they bring it to school. 

Transportation Sheet
I'm sending home a transportation sheet in your child's Friday Folder so you can let me know how your child will be going home on the two half days, Wednesday and Thursday. Please fill it out and return on Tuesday. (Even if your child's transportation is staying the same.)

Figure Me Out
Students designed posters with different facts and math equations about themselves. Their peers have to "Figure Out" the  equation under each fact to find the answer.
