August Snack Calendar

I finally got the August snack calendar added to our class web site.  You can open this PDF file by clicking here.  I’ll put the September calendar up on the first of the month.

This week

This is the last week of August. We will have homework Monday through Thursday nights. It will typically be a Math Home Link page and free-choice reading for 20 minutes. I will soon send home a letter about an “All About Me” bag. I will send home a paper bag in which they in to put three objects that help them tell about themselves. We’ll then use those 3 objects to create a 5 paragraph “All About Me” essay. It will take us a while, but it will be fun.

I’ll soon have the snack calendar posted on our web site (as soon as I can get it uploaded).

We will have between 5 and 8 spelling words each week. I’ll introduce them at the beginning of the week and we will take a test over them on Friday. The test will also include previous spelling words, so they need to continue to study the words they are having trouble with. When we are done, we will have spelling 203 of the most frequently misspelled words by 3rd graders. You can find these words on the Spelling List Page of this web site, and I will post a link to the spelling words each week.

Here are this week’s spelling words:

Week 1

Parent/Student Orientation

Wow!  What a great Parent/Student Orientation night!    I have never in my 9 years at Carl Junction had every student show up until this year.  This year is already off to a great start, and it hasn’t even started yet.  Mr. Rainey and I enjoyed meeting all of you.  We look forward to working with you this year in educating your child.  We’ll be looking for you on the first day of school Wednesday.  See ya there, pardner!

Welcome 3rd graders

Howdy Pardners!

Welcome the Rockin’ S ranch. We’ll be rustin’ up a whole heap of readin’ this year. We’ll be having a round up of all those 3rd grade bulldogs on Monday Evening 4-7 pm, so mosey on over. Bring along your saddle bags of supplies and you can stow them away in their rightful places. You’ll have to leave your horse hitched to the rail outside, though. We’ll have a whole passel of learnin’ going on in our corral this year, so come meet me, your trail boss this year, Mr. Sigler. Get along little doggies to corral #16 and find your stall. I hope to see you there.
