Busy January

Dear Third Graders,

     We have been keeping busy this month! Here are some highlights...

    In PE, we were introduced to Challenges which is curriculum for our third through fifth grade. We had to work with groups to solve different challenges and see if we could advance levels! I loved joining our class to see what you were doing. We talked a lot about Growth Mindset and how our Friday Challenges are very similar.  We have to work as a team, make sure everyone is included, problem solve, be resilient, be persistent, be flexible when things are not working, and be optimistic. We have a solid understanding of these words, but living them can be hard. Keep up the great work!

Here are two of our challenges:






     We also had some students from the High School French Club come read Green Eggs and Ham to us in..... FRENCH!  It was fun to learn some words, sing the French alphabet, and sing a few French songs. I also got to see a friend I taught in first grade and the sister of another former student of mine!



     January has also brought us our first Birthday Celebration of 2019!


Bear Hugs,
