October 3-6

Reading:
We've continued to review. Please remember to check your child's Edmodo.
On Thursday we had a Latin/Greek test. These can be studied at home as well as school.  Your child received new spelling words on Monday and will test on Thursday, October 13.

Writing:
We wrote an opinion paper on candy corn. On Monday, the students taste-tested it and decided whether or not it was one of the best Halloween candies. We identified facts that support our opinions. These are posted in the hall.

Grammar:
I worked with small groups to review parts of speech, while other students reviewed by completing Mad Libs.

Projects:
We worked on our catapults.

Misc:
We are almost already done with the first quarter. Time flies in 3rd grade. I am enjoying your children so much - they are sweet, funny and just a joy to have.
Fall break is coming up the week of the 17th.
