It was so fun to meet all of you at the Aquarium for the field trip. One little boy in the class told me that I never did anything important in class because I had missed all of the field trips. I decided that I better come and do something important, even though it was my day off! My little girl Ellie was so excited to come. She was also really tired when we got home. This is a picture of her while watching TV after the field trip and the park.
Kids' Market Place is a fun activity that we do in Third Grade each year. The students are assigned a job and a certain amount of money to spend. They get to go around to different booths and buy things with their money. Some of the booths included, housing, food, pets, donations and clothing. It is fun to her them try to "budget" their money so that they can get everything that they need. A special thanks to all the parents that helped. It would not have been so successful without your help.
I really want the students to be in charge of this blog. I decided that I would check out my camera to one or two kids each day. Today was Kiana and Pagie's day. This is what they came up with. I think that they did a great job!
We had awesome parent volunteers that did our "Jr. Achievement" lessons this year. We loved having Meleseini's parents in our classroom. Thanks Again!!
This a picture of the "town" that our class designed.
St. Patrick's Day was so fun! Everyone in our class wore green, and a ton of it! We did a fun graphing activity with the marshmallows from a box of Lucky Charms. Mrs. Mower did a writing activity with the students about why they thought that they we lucky and we even had Larry the Leprechaun come to our class. He made a big mess but left treats so everyone was happy. Maybe next year we will catch him!!
