Let's "SPARKLE" in 3rd Grade!  

October 3-7, 2022 

October Reading Rodeo: The goal is to read 20 minutes daily, or 100 minutes weekly. Keep track of the books you read. There should be 4 or more chapter books. Please do not return goal sheets until the end of the month. 

Multiplication flashcards can be used to help memorize the facts. This is the order of memorizing the facts;

5-2-10-9-3-4-6-7-8-square #s

Once a student has passed a fact, he/she may continue to the next fact.

Keep memorizing your facts. Once all students have passed the timed tests, we will have a Banana Split Party

multiplication.com also has many games for practicing all math facts.

Field Trip: On Friday, October 7th, we are planning to go to Scarecrow Farms with the 2nd grade class for a fall field trip. Students will need to bring their own lunch and a water bottle. The forecast is sunny and 51 degrees, so please dress for cool weather. 

Check your student's orange homework folder.

If there is homework in it, it is due the next morning.

The homework folder should be at school every day. 

Any day: Practice multiplication facts. Most days the students will take a timed test.

Please notify me by a note if your child has alternate plans at the end of the day. 

Please call the office if you have a child that is sick. I do not always have time to check my email or texts throughout the day. I will reply to any text or email I receive. If I haven't replied, please assume I have not read it. 

If you need to reach me, and I don't need to reply right away, either my email or my cell phone will work just fine. (call or text)
