Mid-terms and Other Things...

This week I have no pictures to add to the blog....BOO!  I always love taking pictures of our work, but we were really busy this week.  Everyday I thought about taking pictures I was just too caught up in the learning to take snapshots.  I do have some pictures of last weeks mini-cheer leaders that I can come back and add when I get a free chance.

Mid-terms went home today.  They are in your child's blue homework folder.  We have a new grading system that I want to explain to you today.  It goes as follows:  P-proficient, W-working towards proficiency with steady progress, L-working towards proficiency with little progress.  It is okay if you do not see a P for each subject area.  In fact, you most likely will not see any P's at this time of the year.  It would make sense at the beginning of the year that your child is working towards proficiency in all subject areas.  Our learning is a work in progress.  We make strides towards our learning goals weekly and try our best to improve upon ourselves throughout the school year.

Tonight is the first movie night of the year.  Third grade will be showing Rio 2.  You will also have a chance to win a boy or girl bike for a 50 cent raffle.  Movie nights are so much fun for the whole family.  If you haven't been to one, you should definitely try to make it to some of them this year.  It is free to get into the movie.  A concession stand is offered for you to get all kinds of goodies to eat while watching the movie?

Don't forget that our field trip is on October 1st.  We will need all permission slips and money by Tuesday, September 23rd.  This is also picture day.  Don't forget to bring your smiles with you!!!
