In science we are experimenting with seeds this week! We started last week with the following supplies:

1.   One ziplock bag

2.   One package of seeds

3.   3 paper towels

We placed our seeds in the window (a light spot) and on the white board (dark spot). We PREDICTED what we thought might happen. Our guess was:

“Bags on the window will grow faster because they are by the light better.”

We are checking our bags every day and measuring our seeds with a ruler to see how much they have grown, if any. When we came back from the weekend we found a surprise!!! Stay tuned to see what happens to our seeds!

Monday: Spelling: Workbook p. 9-11 AND Tic-Tac-Toe (REMINDER: spelling homework is ALWAYS due Friday, unless otherwise noted)

Welcome!

I am trying my best to get this blog up to date, and I am hoping this post finds our page! 🙂

We are already full swing into the school year! These past two weeks have been full of fun, getting to know each other, learning new routines, having fire drills, soccer practices, oh, and of course learning!! 🙂

I am so proud of Grade 3 and all the work and progress they are showing me so far! I am looking forward to this year and everything we get to learn and experience together.

I am hoping this blog will serve to answer your questions, update you on homework, and inform you about any events going on.

Welcome to Grade 3!

Love,

Mrs. Rodgers

Well here’s the last post for the 2011-2012 year! There’s no homework this week in celebration of the end of the year.  However, I will be handing out a pamphlet of suggestions for summer homework to help stop the “summer brain drain.” Children will also be taking home their workbooks, stationery and any work they have on the walls.  Can each child please bring in at least 2 cloth supermarket bags so they can carry their items home. Also a reminder about our field trip tomorrow.  Hopefully the rain will subside for us.  If it looks too dangerous to be out in, we’ll have a celebration inside the class with games, movies and I can order some pizza etc since they have paid for lunch.  I’ll sort out any necessary refunds too.  But please have your child bring their bathing suit, towel etc. for the field trip tomorrow as a decision will only be made by 8:30am.  Also please note they we will now be leaving Turtle Farm at 1:30pm rather than 12:30pm due to Kindergarten, Grade 1 and Grade 3 sharing a bus.Thanks parents for your help and participation this year.  I hope you all have a well deserved and restful summer.Best wishes,Jenny Hurst
