Virtue of the Month: Compassion

Dear Grade Threes and Parents,

Character Circle - Mrs. Unruh met with the grade three community to discuss the challenges we been having  in showing Compassion to one another. As a large group, we shared how we many of us have felt disappointed in how we are being treated in the classroom and on the playground. Please share with your parents, ideas that were discussed and how you can show greater compassion to your peers.

Literacy MAP - Today a new round of leveled learning started. Please remember to complete the homework assigned by your teacher. All groups have spelling homework tonight and tests scheduled for Friday. If you are in my group, please review the 10 words given to you today and have a parent begin testing you at home to see if you can spell them (you do not need to use the grapheme markings). We will work at writing sentences with your words tomorrow morning.

Social Studies - Today we read "The Lorax," by Dr. Seuss. Many of you were able to connect our discussions of needs, wants and quality of life to the theme of the story. Tell your parents about the Once-ler and the Lorax. Share how the Once-ler made it very difficult for others to meet their basic needs.

Library Book Exchange - Students signed out new books today. Please spend time reading and enjoying your books at home. If you have forgotten your books, please bring them back tomorrow and I will send you to get new ones.

See you tomorrow.

Ms. Toy
