Hello Grade Three Parents,
I hope and trust your children are settling into Grade Three well. I feel like it's been longer than two weeks and we've been together as a class for months. It's a good feeling!
Friday was the Terry Fox Run. Before the run we had a discussion and art activity about heroes, and then in the gym we watched an excellent clip about Terry Fox. It was very moving. We also had our first math test on Friday, and yet again your kids blew me away! Everyone in the class has a firm understanding of the concept taught. I'm so excited for this week when we look at skip counting and it's connection to multiplication. To help parents track their child's progression in math I will be stapling a small progress in the planner after taking the test. This sheet not only tells you the score but where your child stands in the relation to the material covered. I hope this helps.
I just wanted to remind you that listening to and having your child read is very important. My expectation is that each student will read at least 30 minutes a day (alone or to another person). This along with other homework is important to helping your child take responsibility for their learning. Thank you for partnering with me in this regard.
Spelling homework starts this week. The concept being taught is short and long vowels, which we've been learning this past week. Please make sure your child returns it on Tuesday.
If you have any questions please feel free to stop by after school. I enjoy meeting you all!
Mrs. Kullman
