Quarter 4 Week 7

Hello 3C!

I hope you have had a wonderful weekend, mine has been super busy and also super fun! On Saturday we celebrated my daughter Charlotte's first birthday with lots of family and friends. It was great to celebrate her special day! We had a busy week in 3C as well! We enjoyed our Mayflower activity on Wednesday, a special doughnut treat to celebrate teacher appreciation week as a class, and our Spring Concert! Our scholars sang beautifully and it was great to see them on stage with their class!

Charlotte and her Arete Aunties!

Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for showering us throughout the week with treats and your kind words, it means the world!

 Yummy Doughnut Celebration!

Friends getting ready to perform!

Looking lovely in our concert attire!

A Look Into The Classroom:

Language Arts: We will have a 20 word Spalding list this week, due to MAP testing on Tuesday and Thursday. We’re enjoying some Fairy Tales and Tall Tales with our much loved The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe finished. In grammar we are doing a close review of simple and complete subjects and predicates.

Science:  This week we will be presenting our Science projects.  We are so excited to see these projects and share them with each other.  At the end of the week we will be learning about black holes and the life cycle of a star. 

History: Students will start to examine the northern and middle colonies, looking at the Puritan settlements and what made the colony of Rhode Island stand out from the others. This week's homework is a fun one meant to involve family members: students will get to learn more about why their own families came to the new world!

Math: : We will continue and complete our unit on weight this week; a quiz is scheduled for Thursday, so keep an eye out for a practice packet on Wednesday evening to help students review. On Friday we will start our final unit of the year, capacity, with an estimation activity and a lot of water.

Upcoming Events:

Tuesday and Thursday of next week, we will have our final MAP benchmark test of the year. These tests do not count towards students’ grades, but they do measure student growth for the year. Please send your scholar to school with a hearty snack and a good night’s sleep the evening before.
