NewsletterFebruary has started with a bang, and it's hard to believe that Spring Break is just around the corner. This week in Pirates Cove, the third grade continued their in depth study of Roald Dahl, began researching a black leader to celebrate black history month, began writing the middle of their small moment stories, and were introduced to our new, dear friends, the FANBOYS (ask your child, he/she will explain)!!! We were pumped to see a gigantic box of Scholastic books waiting for us in the faculty room on Tuesday, and were able to share some of the new titles with the children. Thank you all so much for purchasing books for your children...it keeps our class library stocked with current titles as well as the classics! We can't wait to share the progress we have noticed from your children at parent teacher conferences. Please remember to sign up for a time slot! John and Nina | Memory Jogger-A page has been created on the website signupgenius.com for parents to sign up for a conference time. The teachers are unavailable on Tuesday, March 11, so options are a time on the 12th/13th, or a time before Spring Break. Use signupgenius if you would like to schedule a time before break. -Every student in the third grade is growing at an incredible rate, both physically and mentally. Please remember to pack healthy snacks (and plenty of them) and lunches for your child. They need the fuel! | Calendar-2/7---T shirt day and field trip to PB campus -2/14--Valentine's Day party @ 2:15 in classroom. There will be light snacks and card exchange. Parents welcome. -Spring break February 21-March 9 |
