Math Games

Students are enjoying two new games in the math center this week.  Fill All Four is a game that helps the students practice their knowledge of fractions.  Money Bags is an activity that allows the children to practice counting different amounts of money using their skip counting skills.

Owl Pellets

The students looked like miniature scientists this week as they explored the size, color, texture and the contents of an owl pellet. They found treasures inside including feathers, fur, talons, and skulls.

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

Dr. Seuss was born on March 2, 1904.  To honor this beloved author's birthday, the National Education Association celebrates Read Across America.  In honor of the event this year, the third grade teachers have been transformed into their favorite storybook characters.  Teaching the students today are Amelia Bedilia, Charlotte, Piggy, The Paperbag Princess, Hermione, Ms. Frizzle and Matilda.
