Spring is upon us...

Parents,
We are so close to spring break and we have got a lot going on in the class this week. Fieldtrip to Linville Caverns this Wednesday. I have Brooke Dickson and John Murray as chaperones. This will be an all day fieldtrip. Leaving no later than 8:30 and might have to leave a little earlier and will be back right before school lets out. Tomorrow we are skyping with the leader of the pollinator project and this Friday we are going to Skype with a friend of mine that just returned form Thailand.

Math: Fractions on a number line
Reading: finishing up our Global Families presentations and questioning with informational text
Writing: Persuasive piece on if you should move to the country you researched.
Fundations: Getting back into this after a short break

Reminder that we do have school this Friday and the potluck is on Thursday in the classroom.

Attached you will find information on the pollinator project 3rd grade is helping with.

Do you have books your child no longer reads? Be awesome and donate those books to our end of the book drive. Classes visit the library and each student picks out a book to take home and add to their home library. Students don’t have to donate a book to get a book, but we need a lot of book donations so students can find something they are truly excited about reading. Donations can be brought to the library. At the end of the year, if we have enough books, we will invite all classes to the library to pick out a donated book.”
