Happy Easter to all St. Malachy 3rd Grade Families from Mrs. Burg.
ISASP Testing
This week has been spent completing the practice ISASP tests to prepare the 3rd grade students for the actual testing.
Students will need to make sure they have a book available to read when they finish testing.
A note card with an envelope was sent home in last week's take home folder. The note card was for parents to write a positive and encouraging note to their child. Notes will be given out to students before testing begins on Monday, April 6th.
Science
The 3rd grade class continues to learn about weather. The students have learned about predicting different types of weather.
Math
Students worked on estimating differences to the nearest ten and hundred, then solved the actual problem. A review of concepts for ISASP testing was also covered.
Peep Adoption
Each third grade student has adopted a Peep to care for over the Easter weekend. Each student filled out a certificate of adoption. Students are asked to complete one journal entry per day, which includes Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Each journal entry should be at least three sentences. Each sentence should start with an uppercase letter and end with punctuation. Students should also include an illustration to go along with the journal entry. The journal needs to be completed and returned to school on Monday.
Needed
The 3rd grade classroom needs more boxes of Kleenex. Any donation for the classroom is greatly appreciated.
