Welcome!

We had a wonderful first day of 3rd grade with 18 very enthusiastic students all ready to learn.

Today we went over classroom rules and procedures, learned about each other with toilet paper (ask you're kids to explain), made posters about our summer exploits, and read a story called If Everybody Did.  After reading the book, I divided the class into 4 groups by putting stickers on their heads (you'll have to ask about that, too) and they went to different centers to write about their hopes and expectations about 3rd grade.

Lastly, we began a math project relating numbers to our everyday lives.

I will be updating the blog weekly (usually on Friday or the weekend) about everything we've done in class each week.  You can also check us out on Twitter for updates!

I'm always available for questions, comments, and concerns.  Please feel free to email me at any time or give me a call!  I'm looking forward to working with your adorable, smart, funny children this year!
