3rd Grade In the News

Third grade has begun their study of ancient and modern China.  We are exploring the geographical features and learning many interesting facts about the country through a variety of literature. The students have been busy writing folk tales, and soon will begin to investigate the many inventions that originated from China. Within our classes, the students will be making a brochure from an invention of their choice. To conclude our unit, we will be having a feast to celebrate the Chinese culture.  As the time gets closer, more information will follow.

Dear Parents,

     The third grade is working with the Island Moving Company for the next two weeks.  Please join us to see their wonderful performance on Friday, February 26^th @ 8:00am in the Hill House.

In order to master our math facts, we would like for all of our students to practice at least 3 minutes, 4 nights per week. In addition to using their flash cards, students may want to use the following website from Harcourt School.
