Week 12: Thanksgiving Week

Happy Thanksgiving! If your child is leaving before Wednesday next week, please send a note letting me know. There will not be any homework assigned over the long weekend and we will not have a reading response sheet for next week.

My thanks to the many parents who have been checking the homework folder for notices and Friday Updates attached to the children's weekly homework sheets. Please keep an eye out for the notices regarding the Third Grade Cultural Luncheon. A save-the-date notice went home today to announce that the event will take place on December 15th. There will be more notices in the following weeks with further instructions for home support with the activities we will be doing in class in order to prepare for this event.

Please feel free to have your child use this math link to support the learning we have been doing in class: https://www.ixl.com/math/grade-3/multiply-by-7

Here's what to expect for the next shortened week:

• We are going to finish our work with Mystery after next week and begin reading Nonfiction books. In this reading unit, students will study the structures of a nonfiction text and learn how to use text features such as the table of contents and pictures to help them understand the main ideas of a text. 
• We will visit with our Buddies class on Wednesday!
• Schools will be closed on Thursday and Friday in observance of Thanksgiving. 

Have a great weekend!
