Third grade will have their Secret Santa
Store on Wednesday. We do this store so children can apply the economic concepts
they have been learning in class. The children can purchase items from our class
as well as the other third grade classes. There is a price list in the folder.
So kids you may want to be doing chores around the house to earn some extra
money.
There
will be no homework or spelling next week!! Merry Christmas.
Mrs. Reynolds, the homeroom mom, should
have called you about what to send to the party. If you have not heard from her
let me know, that probably means she doesn’t have a current phone number.
This
year for our Christmas party I am asking each child to bring 25 small items,
that is one for each child. We will have bags on the tables and students will
give each child a small gift on the day of the party. These can be candy,
pencils, stickers, etc.
Here are some ideas for conversation
starters. “Name for types of clouds?” “Tell what type of weather each type
of cloud brings.” “Explain supply and demand.” “Who is the consumer and
who is the producer?” “What are
you reading for A.R.?”
Reading Totes are coming home each night.
Make sure your child does their assignment so that they are prepared for reading
group the next day. Please check over your child’s homework.
