Amazing Current Events

This purpose of this post is to celebrate the fantastic current events we've had this month! Almost every single student remembered to write questions before writing answers on their current event page - - and the questions were well thought out!  Fantastic!  Many current event presentations have raised further questions, discussion, and reasoning among our classmates.  We love learning about interesting things happening in the world around us! I am so proud of the children for responsibly completing their current events, for carefully following directions, and for being clear and confident on their oral presentations.  I do believe I am seeing third graders prepare to enter the fourth grade!  Kudos!

Spring is Here!

Welcome back from Spring Break! I hope everyone had a relaxing time in all of that beautiful weather. We're working hard in 3rd grade to prepare for these students' first end-of-year test. In 2 1/2 short weeks, the fun begins. The children are looking forward to showing everything they've learned this year.  Check out the video below to see what else we've been doing this spring.
