Reading Counts

Our Reading Counts program is up and running!  The third grade goal for this marking period is to earn 15 points.  Be sure to check in with your child to make sure they are reading and working towards taking tests to meet this goal.  

Fall Conferences

Our fall conferences take place October 10th and 11th, or November 7th and 8th.  Those of you meeting with me in October will be receiving an email this week with your scheduled time.  I look forward to meeting with all of you soon!

Science and Social Studies Tests

This week we will be having both a Science test on Wednesday, and a Social Studies test on Thursday.  
Review sheets will come home with students on Monday. In Science we have been learning about how
plants reproduce and pass on traits.  Ask your child to tell you how selection works. In Social Studies
we have been learning the basics of Michigan geography, including what makes Michigan special with
our state symbols.  Please use homework time this week to review for these two tests with your child.

Nutcracker Date

As most of you know, the Nutcracker is performed by third graders each year.  Students have already
been busy learning all of the songs. Here is the link for your student to practice all of the songs at

December 10th, with a school performance at 1:30, and the evening performance at 6:00.
