MAP Testing:

Just as a reminder, MAP testing on the last week of April. It will consist of 3 math sections and 3 language arts sessions. We will be taking a different test each day that week and will be spending a large portion of April getting prepared. Because third grade is the first time students will be MAP testing, we will be talking about test taking strategies and practicing on the laptops. I will send out more information as we get closer to testing time.

Service Learning:

This we are sending home a form for those of you who are interested in purchasing an ad for the back of the "Flash Dash" t-shirts. The details of this project are slowly starting to come together, so we are excited to get the ball rolling!

Math:

Last week in math we took our divisions tests. These are also being sent home today in Friday folders. Please make sure to SIGN and return your students test! This way I can be sure you went over it with them and can see where they are at in math! We have moved onto Perimeter and Area in math now and will be working on this for the next couple of weeks!

Multiplication Sundaes

As you may know, students have been working hard to pass all of their times facts in order to earn a sundae party at the end. We still have a few students who are working on that goal, however, I believe we will be having our sundae party on Friday March 24^th. I am asking for help in donation of sundae toppings. I plan to provide the ice cream however if you are interesting in signing up please do so here

Reading Logs:

This month for our reading log, students will have a chance to earn a ticket to six flags in St. Louis. To earn this prize, students must read 6 hours and return the reading log I sent home at the beginning of the month. It must be signed by a parent in order for me to hand out the ticket! Please make sure to keep those students reading at all times! It will help them so much next year. Those reading logs are due Friday, March 24^th!

Health:

We have officially started our health unit and we are loving it!! We have been learning about diseases, germs, and what causes them. This week students had the chance
