June 13th Savanna

Dear Parents:

            Thank you to everyone who came and supported Tuckahoe Town on Wednesday morning.  The children all were so excited to promote and sell their goods and services to all the customers.  All the groups did a wonderful job of working together, staying on budget, and learning that you do have to keep track of all your expenses.

            As you know, next week is the last week of school.  We will be wrapping up several small projects and getting the room ready for summer.  We will also write and send our final pen pal notes to our friends in France.  They are sending us their final notes as well.  As I am unsure if their notes will reach up before next Friday, I would like to ask that you send in a self addressed stamped envelope with your child next week.  When the pack of notes does reach us, I will forward them on to your child at home.  I would also like to ask that you send in a bag with your child on Monday so we can begin to send supplies home for the summer. 

Our intern Adam’s last day with us will be Tuesday, June 17^th.  He has done a great job helping in the classroom and working with the children.  As part of a thank you to Adam, I would like to ask the children to make him a card at home and bring it in on either Monday or Tuesday.  We will have a little celebration to thank Adam on Tuesday afternoon, after the picnic. 

Please take a look at the list of calendar events below.  I hope you will be able to join us for the class picnic on Tuesday.

Savanna 6-6-14

Dear Parents:

            The hum of production has been heard throughout the third grade hallway this week.  The children have been working hard on creating their products for Tuckahoe Town, and figuring out how to stay on budget.  We have taken the opportunity to learn about how to keep a check register and write checks in Math.  In addition, we have been continuing with our regular learning as well. The children have been reviewing concepts they learned this year by playing a variety of math games during the week.  They also took an end of the year pop quiz on Thursday.  In Language Arts, they completed their end of the year writing prompt, continued with their cursive handwriting, and grammar practice.  We have also taken the opportunity to learn about healthy foods during Reading.  As you can see, the learning continues. 

            Please take a look at the list of calendar events below.  I hope you will be able to join us for Tuckahoe Town on Wednesday.
