Welcome to Third Grade!
Thank you to everyone who came to Meet the Teacher on Friday. We were thrilled to welcome you all into our classrooms and begin building our third grade community!
The first day of school is Tuesday, August 12th.We cannot wait to welcome your scholar into our classrooms again!
This week we're focusing on procedures, routines and systems. All things which we will need to practice so we can have an orderly and joyful year! Part of our dismissal routine is allowing students to read silently after they have completed their homework. Please send your scholar to school with a silent reading book. You might also want to send your scholar with a healthy snack.
All About Me Bag Reminder: If you attended Meet the Teacher, your child received a Me Bag in their folder. They may fill it with 3 small items that represent who they are (such as a favorite photograph, a treasured keepsake, or a special trinket) and bring it to share with the class on Tuesday. Students who were unable to attend are also encouraged to participate by bringing their own small bag from home with 3 small items to share.
As we will need perseverance this week in learning and relearning our procedures we will also be reading our poem for the week:
Try, Try Again
by William Edward Hickson
It's a lesson you should heed,
Try, try again.
If at first you don't succeed,
Try, try again.
Then your courage should appear,
For if you will persevere,
You will conquer, never fear,
Try, try again.
Warmly,
🌻 Third Grade Team
