With a few weeks under our belts, we are settling into third grade. As with classrooms worldwide, the first several weeks of school include establishing rules, learning routines, reviewing subject materials and getting reacquainted after summer vacation. The classroom rules that we have established for our room all focus on RESPECTincluding: 1. Respect Ourselves 2. Respect Each Other 3. Respect the Things Around Us Of course all of those be a good listener, raise your hand, keep your desk neat and dont talk while others are talking fall right into our three areas of respect. During these first few weeks, Mrs. Vieau and I have done several assessments with the students in the areas of Language Arts and Math. Students have been placed into groups that we feel are best fits according to results from these assessments along with MAP scores. There is some flexibility with these groups and we will adjust student placement as needed throughout the school year. Currently we each teach a group in Language Arts and Math. Mrs. Vieau teaches Science, while I teach Social Studies. As you can see, our upcoming month is filled with a variety of activities. Please note, we will be participating in MAP assessments in a couple of weeks. I will let you know the exact dates and times of our tests when I get that information from Mrs. Feldman. To help your childs assessment experience be successful, please make sure that he or she gets a good nights rest and a healthy breakfast. I am diligently working on a webpage and once I have it user ready I will share that link with you. When that happens, I will be posting my newsletters to the webpage for your review. Watch for the unveiling within the next few weeks! Your child is bringing home a Book Project information sheet today. Please take some time to go over it with your child. Weve already done so in class, but a review of it wont hurt. I have been blessed with a super group of students! They freely participate, are hard working and come in each day ready to learn with smiles on their faces. Thank
