This week we launched our reading unit on Series Books!  Students went book shopping earlier in the week and now they are well underway in their books.  Students will need to read at least 3 books in a series and then they may move on to another series.  Since all 3rd grades are involved in this unit at once, there may not be enough books. Therefore, if your child asks to take a trip to the Darien Library to find more books, please encourage him/her. 

In Writing we finished our first personal narrative pieces.  We will meet with Mrs. Collin's class on Friday to celebrate and share our stories. 

Students are enjoying the new Investigations program in Math.  They are working on adding to 100 and ordering numbers on a number line.  Students have also been bringing in their collections of 1,000.  The pictures will be shared on our bulletin board. 

In Social Studies, students have been learning how to do research on their regions.  In library this week, they explored sites such as "culture grams."  Remember, this can be accessed via the Ox Ridge  Library home page.

Have a great weekend....remember, no school on Monday (for students).
