A letter from your son/daughter to you!
Dear Moms,
Thank you very much for helping to organize the activities for Hanukkah. We liked it very much, especially the game with the donuts. We also enjoyed making the Chanukia but we also had a lot of fun playing the bingo game. The secret message and word searches were amazing.
Yours sincerely,
All the Grade 3 Students

December 7-11, 2009 Update & Homework Assignments
What did grade 3 students do last week?
Math – Multiplication & Problem Solving
Science – Animal Defenses
Social Studies – Researching a Country of Their Choice
Language Arts – Imperative Verbs & Instruction Writing
Important Note to Parents:
We are moving along quickly in math. All students need to practice their multiplication facts. Rather than “figure out” what a product is, for example, 6 X 3, by adding 6 + 6 + 6, students should be able to say “18” quickly. Please encourage your child to practice these facts 0-9 until they know them by heart. This is a vital skill in order to further progress in math. Today, Ms. D’s students were given triangles to help them with these facts. Your child can show you how to use them. After they know their multiplication facts, they can move onto division using these same triangles. Please encourage your son or daughter to practice their facts daily. As always, thank you for your support.
