Team Urban,

We are down to the final 3 days of 3rd grade! As always, it is extremely rewarding to watch each child achieve a successful year with growth in their academics as well as social/emotional growth. As this year comes to a close, I would like to thank each and every one of you for your support throughout the year. I am honored to have been your child's teacher, and I couldn't have done it all without your support and engagement in your child's education.  

They Escaped!--Here are some pictures from the 3rd Grade Escape Room Day.  They had a blast trying to "Escape" 3rd grade!

The last 3 days of school are busy, so here is a rundown of the activities each day:

Monday, June 1st:

• Visit to 4th-grade classrooms
• AR Waterslide Day

• Here’s what students need to wear and bring:

  • Swim shirt and board shorts or athletic shorts (no bikini bathing suits allowed)

  • Water shoes or Crocs in sport mode are highly recommended

  • A water bottle and extra snacks

  • Sunscreen and hats are also recommended

  • Towel -2 possibly

  • Change of clothes is optional

  
  

  Schedule for the waterslide fun:

  • After recess, students who have met all 3 trimesters of AR will go first. Afterwards, students who missed their goal for a trimester will join in the waterslide fun!

  
  

  Parents are invited to join us during the waterslide time! We’re so excited to celebrate with a fun and memorable day!

 Team Urban,

The days seem long, but our days together are getting shorter.  Here are some pictures of a fun buoyancy boat project this week, and Running Club for the 3rd Trimester awards.

Running Club 3rd trimester

3rd grade is excited to celebrate students' AR progress for all 3 trimesters with a fun waterslide party on Monday, June 1st! Students who have met their AR goals for all three trimesters will receive VIP access to the waterslide. Shortly after, all students will join in the waterslide party fun!  Have students bring extra snacks, as they will be able to eat snacks on their towels during the waterslide party. Also, provide extra sunscreen and a towel. Please keep this a secret, as it will be part of our special 10-day countdown for all 3rd graders. Thank you for your support in making this celebration special for our students!
