Dear Parents:
Ahhh…..the smell of chlorine in the
morning! Our “air freshener” this week
signals another successful week in the Yorktown pool. The children all enjoyed their time in the
pool and came back to class chattering about the water polo game, jumping off
the diving board for the first time, and generally about how much fun they had
had.
Even
with swimming in the morning we have been able to complete our unit on Mali,
learn about equivalent fractions, discuss weathering, erosion, and phases of
the moon in Science. In addition, we
have written letters back to our pen pals and fit in a couple of grammar
lessons. The learning doesn’t stop.
It
is hard to believe we are finishing up the third quarter of the year. As we move into the final weeks of third
grade I would like to take a minute and remind everyone that we need to
continue to put forth our best effort each day.
Keeping up with assignments, participating in class discussions,
remembering both classroom and school rules remain as important now as they
have been all year long. I am looking
forward to a great quarter from everyone.
Finally,
I would like to thank everyone who donated a book from my “Wish List” to our
class library. The Book Fair was a big
success, and I appreciate your generosity and support of reading in our
classroom.
I
hope you enjoy the weekend.
