With the short week, we did our Third Grade Meeting today!  We started by sharing our High/Low for the week.  Students shared everything from conquering the monkey bars and doing well on Symphony Math to the cold weather and Ms Franklin being gone for part of the day!  It is always interesting to hear them reflect on their week together.

We have had a very busy week in third grade!  In writing, we are focusing on the difference between a writer's notebook entry and a small moment or narrative story.  We did a shared writing piece on our hike and then took that piece and turned it into a small moment or narrative story!  We will be wrapping up our Launching Writer's Workshop Unit next week and will switch our focus to personal narratives where we will be focusing on one small moment.

In reading, we are finishing up our unit on fluency.  We will be moving into analyzing characters and character traits.  We will be reading, The Twits by Roald Dahl and brainstorming various character traits.

Reminder:
No school Friday 10/7 and Monday 10/10
