Let's Sparkle in 3rd Grade!
October 27-31, 2025
Orange Folder: Check if you have homework that is due tomorrow!
This folder should be returned to school each day.
Decodable Readers: Each student will be coming home with a short decodable reader booklet. The purpose of reading these books orally is to improve the students' oral reading skills. Encourage your child to read with expression, pausing for punctuation, so their reading takes on meaning.
2nd & 3rd Chapel: Thursday, October 30th. It will be held in the gym. Chapel will be available to watch through Facebook live. If anyone wants to request a friendship status with me before the 30th, that would be great.
School T-shirt: We would like the students to wear their school T-shirts for chapel. Please make sure you have one that fits you, or please borrow one from someone else. Thank you!
Multiplication/Division Tests: We're getting closer to a Banana Split Party. Keep memorizing your multiplication and division facts.
