In regards to the independent reading work, many kids were in the middle of their books from last week when we began our unit. It is natural that the children would want to finish their last stories before fully diving into their mysteries. We have decided that we would read mystery books at school but save our other books for home reading.
Our reading response assignment can be about the main character in any book. In mystery, there can often be a couple or trio of characters that receive equal billing, so it is just best if your child picks one of them to write about. Reading responses are given out on Mondays and due the following Monday. On shortened school weeks, we will skip this assignment.
Here are the math links that support the work we did recently in class:

Coming next week:
- Tuesday is Wacky Wardrobe Day for Third graders. On this day, we don't have to worry too much about being fashionable. In the past, kids have come in with some creative ways to wear their regular clothes. Some clothes are turned inside out, some children layer skirts over pants, some wear paisley and plaid combinations. If your child chooses to wear mismatched shoes, please make sure the shoes are of the same height.
- We will have our Chapter 3 math test on Thursday.
- On Family Friday, we will spend some time together with aunts, uncles or grandparents who are invited to our classroom. We look forward to seeing you there!
Have a warm weekend!
