Sheet Protectors

This is just a reminder that each student will need 15 sheet protectors for their in-school project.  Please send them in as soon as possible so that we can have them available at the appropriate time.

Reading Eggs

The sign-up time for Reading Eggs has been extended.  We have 30 slots available to us and only 8 have turned in money.  If you would like for your child to participate in Reading Eggs despite their group, please send in $7 by next Friday. If you have any questions, email Mrs. Vassar.

Thank You

Thank you to all of those that donated for our holiday crafts. We have some great crafts coming for the students to complete. For those that still have a gift certificate to send in, I have purchased another gift certificate for a small amount of money that exceeded what we needed and will add them together to get some craft materials for other holidays.

Reading Eggs

An email was sent out this evening concerning Reading Eggs. This is a program that is used by the lower grades K-2 for all students.  There are some extra slots that were offered to third grade. I have passed these out to certain students based on a certain criteria.  If your child did not receive a sheet, please be assured that although this program would be enjoyable for them, it is not something that would enhance what they are presently doing. If you have any questions or you want to make sure that your students has the opportunity please email me and I will see how many slots we have open near the end of the week.

Donations needed

The holiday season will soon be upon us and the third grade team likes to give the students the opportunity to have some fun with crafts. We order these through Oriental Trading.  If you would like to help cover the costs, please let Mrs. Vassar know.  The easiest way is for you to purchase a gift card from Oriental itself that can be applied towards the final payment as one large order is placed at the same time.

Field Trips

An email came out earlier in the week about the field trips that the third grade will be participating in second semester. We need to start collecting this money now so that we can pay the invoices for the trips.  We ask that, if possible, you print out the form and submit it with payment.  We will also provide paper copies soon for thsoe that can't download it from the email.
