Changes to the Breakfast Program

On Monday, February 1, we are making some changes to our school Breakfast Program.  Breakfast will be available in the cafeteria from 8:15 – 8:30 AM.  From 8:35 – 8:45, students will be able to pick up a breakfast in the cafeteria to be consumed in their classrooms as part of our Breakfast in the Classroom program.

The cost for breakfast is $1.25/day or $.30 for reduced lunch students.  If your child receives free lunch, he/she also receives a free breakfast

Here are copies of the Science Project information that was sent home several weeks ago.  I do not have extra copies to send home if you’ve lost the papers.  Attached are copies that you can download and print at home.

Third Grade Field Trip

Dear 3^rd grade families,

We will be visiting The Cranbrook Institute of Science on Friday, February 26, 2016.  Cranbrook does an excellent job reinforcing what we are learning in science! J  We will be attending two 45 minute classes: “Botany 101” and “Animal Adaptations.”  We will also be visiting the exhibit, “Bats- Superheroes of the Night.”

Due to limited space in the Cranbrook classrooms, chaperones will not be needed on this field trip.  We will be traveling by school bus.  Please send a sack lunch with your child on this day.

Please send $15 cash by Friday, February 5^th. 

Thank you for your cooperation,

Third Grade Teachers

Mrs. Grizzell

Ms. Shene

Ms. Cummins

Spelling words (/dr/, /fr/, /pr/, /tr/ patterns):  drum, frying, price, train, track

Reminder that there is a S.S. test on History on Tuesday, January 26th.  There is a Science quiz on Sound on Wednesday, January 27th.  Study guides were sent home last week for both of these assessments.  Copies can be found on this blog website.

We will have our Unit 5 Math Test this Friday, January 29th.  A study guide is coming home today.  Please complete the study guide with your child and return it to school on Thursday so we can review together for the test.  If students do not return the completed study guide on Thursday, he/she will have to change his/her card to yellow.

Please continue to study multiplication facts at home with your child.  We take a 30 question 3 minute test everyday.  This is a large part of your child’s computation grade on the upcoming report card.

It is very important that all Reading Bags are returned on time (every Monday).  If your child turn’s their Reading Bag in late, they will not receive their new book on time.  Students should be reading 15-20 minutes every night in order to improve their reading fluency and comprehension.

Third time is a charm???  The Lions Organization is scheduled to come tomorrow (Tuesday) for their Anti-Bullying Assembly.  Please encourage your child to wear their Lions gear of Snow School shirts on Tuesday.

Snow School’s Habit Hop is this Wednesday, January 27th.  If your family did not return the yellow RSVP paper, you can still send in a note stating how many people in your family plan on attending.

Reminder that this Friday, January 29th is a half day.
