Friday 11/21

Written by: Kolby and 

Today we had Art and we drew our backgrounds for a still life painting. We also did a project in Social Studies with salt dough. We Are making our own landforms on a map using the dough. On Monday, we will paint them and on Tuesday we will get to take them home. Have a good weekend.

A Note from Mrs. S.:

Hello families,
We are quickly approaching Thanksgiving Break! Next week is a short, 2-day week. There are no upcoming assessments--our Unit 5 Math assessment is still about a week and a half away. However, during the week of December 2nd, you will be receiving mid-marking period reports for your student. Following is some information that will be helpful for you to know:

-There will be no grade for Science, as we will be beginning our Science unit on December 2nd.
-The Social Studies grade will be based upon the unit we just completed; Communities and Geography.
-The Math grade will include your child's grade for Unit 4 only, as we will not have completed unit 5 at that time. The report card will usually include 3 math units, so unit 5 and 6 (assuming we do not have the weather we had last year!) will also be factored into your child's report card grade.
-The Reading grade is based upon where students are expected to be at this point in third grade.
-The writing grade is based upon where students are expected to be at the end of third grade.

There will also be a student goal written at the bottom of the sheet, along with how they are going to achieve their goal. These reports should be signed and returned to school as soon as possible.

Our featured work this week is from the entire class, and is their disguised turkeys! Students did a GREAT job on these and we have received many compliments on both their artwork and their writing! 




Thanks for all you do,
Mrs. Slessinger
