Remainder of the Year:
In looking ahead our goals for the second half of the school year are to continue to fashion responsible Christian leaders, effective communicators, independent thinkers and lifelong learners that are fully prepared for 4th grade. As a 3rd grade team our focus will be on higher expectations and individual responsibility for learning. We feel that by focusing on these goals our students will be successful today and in the future.
One of the ways that I plan to achieve these goals is by holding students accountable for turning work in complete and on time. During the second semester it is the third grade policy to deduct ½ point for a missing number and ½ point for a missing name. Ten percent will be deducted from any assignment turned in late. In order for students to be successful in 4th grade and in the future they will need to turn in their work on time and complete. I will run a missing assignment report on Tuesdays and students will be able to have time to locate any missing work while here at school. If they are unable to find the work here, the report may be sent home in order to find the missing assignment there. Any missing work not completed and turned in by the following Monday will receive a zero.
In religion this semester we will be touching on the Sacrament of Reconciliation, First Holy Eucharist, and Confirmation. Students will be practicing and memorizing prayers.
Cursive handwriting will be introduced this semester. Students will learn lower case letter first, followed by capital letters. All assignments are to be printed unless specified. Students will have ample time to practice this new skill in class.
Two novel studies will be introduced. Students will be reading aloud, working on listening skills, working on complementary writing activities, learning new vocabulary, and much more. We will be reading Who Was Dr Seuss?, by Janet B. Pascal in February and Because of Winn Dixie, by Kate DiCamillo in May. Please make sure that your child has a physical copy of each of these books.
I am looking forward to a successful second semester. Thank you for being an integral part of your child’s education. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.

Please practice multiplication facts from 0-11 with your child. You can do this with flashcards, simple card games, apps, or games. Feel free to mix it up and make it fun. Some great websites to try are:
