Charlton Park
This Friday our 3rd graders will be traveling to the Historic Charlton Park located in Hastings, Michigan.
This trip will show students what it was like to live in a typical 19th century community in Michigan.  
We will depart Lincoln Elementary at 8:45 A.M. We will return to school before our regular school day
dismissal.  Students will need to bring a sack lunch in a disposable container (plastic bag, paper bag,
etc.) for this day or may order a sack lunch from the lunch room – no glass bottles please.  No money
is needed, as there is no gift shop available to students. This trip is free for students!
We will be taking lots of pictures and will share them with everyone, so no cameras please.  
Students may also bring one entertainment item for the trip such as: reading material, an electronic
device, such as a ipod with earbuds, or a DS or video game.  Encourage your child to be selective
about what he/she brings, as personal belongings are their responsibility.
3rd Grade Swimming
Please return the swimming permission slip as soon as possible.  Your child will need this slip signed
in order to participate.


Multiplication Ice Cream Quizzes
This week we will start another multiplication quiz challenge for learning Multiplication facts.  
Students will earn ice cream scoops, and toppings as they pass quizzes for each level of facts.
Please continue to work with your child on multiplication 0-10.  IXL, flashcards, and XtraMath
(a new program we are using)  are good tools to practice facts. Students need to be fluent in these
facts by the end of the year.

Ettinger Testing
Now that Spring Break is over, we will be getting into our testing season before we know it. We will
not start until the end of the month, but I wanted to share our times with you, so you can hopefully
plan around these for any appointments your child may have coming up. We will be doing some test
review in our classrooms, along with our regular curriculum
