March 19th


Parent/Teacher Interviews on Thursday, March 22nd

This will be an opportunity to unpack the report card with me and go deeper into your child’s progress.  If you have not been able to set up an interview on Thursday, you can call the school and email me to arrange an alternate, mutually agreed upon time.  I am available before and after school on most days of the week (Except Monday 3:00-4:20pm due to my ECA)

A reminder that there will be no classes for students on Thursday, March 22nd, during Parent/Teacher Interviews. 

You are welcome to bring your child to the interview! I will have Math manipulatives/Art/Fun play activities at the back of the class to keep students occupied during talking and if you want them to be included in the discussion, that is also welcomed!



Today we started a New round of Daily 5 activities:

Word Work -                       Making bright, crazy, silly sight words
Read to Someone-             Practice knowing our 5 W's of story structure (who, what,                                                         where, when, why, how) + writing about favorite parts
Read to Self-                      Choosing 5 words in our book, drawing our favorite part, writing                                               sentences with our words and creating fun decorative word art
Writing-                              Choice of "Jack The Cat" or "Adventures of Super-boy/girl" story                                             book options for creative writing prompts  


During these centers times, I pull individual students for some Guided Reading time/assessments

Guided reading is an instructional approach that involves a teacher. working with a small group of students who demonstrate similar reading behaviors and can all read similar levels of texts.

Tomorrow from 1:30 pm-2:30 pm grade 3B will be hosting our grade 3A students in my classroom. We will be doing a Gallery Walk of our completed Science Projects and then students will have an opportunity to play the games students' built/ Read and ask questions to those whom made booklets. 

Looking forward to some co-operative learning and exchanging of ideas! I will post photo's from this session as well!

I took home our class pet "Fancy Pants" over the weekend and gave his habitat a much needed cleaning. Here are some photo's of his weekend "Spa Treatment"
