3L Family Math Talk Night: Monday, December 15th 5:30 to 7:00

 Please join us on Monday, December 15 from 5:30 to 7:00 for Family Math Talk Night!  All students from 3L and their families are encouraged to attend a fun filled night of math! Students will visit a variety of stations around the room to solve math problems with their families, but the fun doesn't stop there!  Students will be responsible for modeling the math talk that we use in class each day in order to challenge their family's thinking and solve problems in a variety of different ways.  Parents will be able to experience the Math in Focus program first hand from the eyes of the student as their kids take on the role of the teacher.  Hot chocolate and other snacks will be available for your enjoyment.  You don't want to miss this event! 

The event will take place in our classroom, room W-13.

Save a turkey, eat more...

What a fun day we had in class! First, we read a reader's theater about five plump turkeys trying to escape.  Then, we used a graphic organizer to brainstorm how we could help the turkeys and created our sentences.  Finally, we created a turkey craft with signs reading "Save a turkey, eat more _______".  Here are some of the things our class came up with: save a turkey, eat more: sushi, ice cream, chicken, salad, pizza, sweets, octopus and so many other creative things!

SQUIRM!

Our Squirm performance is tomorrow at 2:15!  If you plan to come watch your child perform, please arrive by 2:00.  Also, be sure that your child wears black to school.  Finally, students can leave after the show with their families, but they must first return to our classroom with their parents to be signed out.
