Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day:

Thursday, February 14th

 

Hello, parents and guardians of 3rd grade.  It’s hard to believe that Valentine’s Day is almost here! Below is some information regarding Valentine’s cards.

 

Valentine’s Cards

If your child will be sending Valentine cards, please make sure of the following:

  • Include a Valentine for each child in the class (there are 19 students in the class.)
  • Have your child simply sign his or her name in the FROM section; no need to address the cards.  This makes handing out cards much easier.
  • Send Valentines in on the morning of Thursday, February 14th as it is a half day.

 

 

Thank you,

Third Grade Team

Arcade Games STEAM-Third Grade Art

Hello Families of River Oaks Third Grade Students!
Our classes are making Arcade Games out of cardboard and recycled materials. We are in the
planning stage right now, but we are in need of supplies and are wondering if any of you have stuff we
can use. Nothing needs to be new, we are trying to use things that would otherwise be thrown out or
recycled! If you have things like: cardboard tubes- a variety of sizes are needed, clothespins, thick
paper plates, solo cups, large boxes, Popsicle sticks and/or tongue depressors, clean soup or vegetable
cans, dowels, ping pong balls, small balls- soft….. We are in NEED! Items can be dropped off to the art
room. Our students are making this Arcade to coincide with a district initiative to provide a S.T.E.A.M.
(Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) experience at every school. Our big opening will be in
May. Please look for more information to come AND thanks in advance for helping out with our
request!
