Welcome Back From Spring Break!

Book Reports Due Thursday, April 4th:

First read a traditional story book. Traditional stories include fairy tales, folk tales, tall tales, legends, fables, and myths.  They are found in the children's nonfiction section of the library under call numbers beginning with J398.2.  Students are required to choose a book from this section of the library.

Second, create an advertisement poster for your book with a catchy slogan.

Third, fill out a storyboard chart, with simple sketches, outlining your "commercial" presentation to the class.  Your commercial should begin and end with your slogan and have strong reasons persuading other students to read your book. You may bring the actual book to show, along with your poster, but the presentation should be memorized.

Multiplication Banana Split Party Thursday, April 4th:

Students have been working on passing off multiplication/division fact families x0-x10 for about four months now. This is a critical skill for progression in math next year. Final progress reports were sent home with the students on Friday, March 22nd showing where they're at in the process of passing off their facts. They will have two extra days to pass off additional facts, when they return from Spring Break, before celebrating at our annual Banana Split Party.

Mark your Calendars for the 3rd Grade Program, "See us Shine!"

 

Third graders are looking forward to performing for parents on Friday, April 12th 9:30-10:15 a.m.  Due to limited space in the gym, we've been asked to have parents only attend this performance.

We've also been asked to remind parents to park in designated parking stalls in the front and back of Altara, to leave the drop-off/pick-up zone free for Kindergarten transportation and school deliveries.
