Team Urban 3rd Grade: Aug. 11th-15th

Team Urban,

I wanted to take a moment to share how wonderful the first two days of school have been. We’ve packed them with procedures and expectations to help set your child up for success. I can already tell that I’m going to adore this class! They are respectful, kind, and eager to help each other, which truly makes my job a joy. Please check out the first-day pictures below!

I do still need a few things from you. If you haven’t sent them in yet, please send the following items as soon as you can:

This week, students will begin with reading for 20 min each night. All 4 entries on the reading log must be filled out, signed, and will be checked on Friday.

Additionally, students will work on a half-sheet of multiplication facts. It is to be completed at home and worked on with a page protector to erase and time themselves each time. I have provided them with a page protector and an Expo marker today. Have them practice several times. Then the final time can be in pencil.
