Track Two, Third Grade
Mrs. Brandt and Ms.
Rigsby
Welcome
to third grade!!
We
are looking forward to meeting you and your child. This year we will have many
new experiences. We will explore the moon and discover the human body. We will
be “Pioneer” children for a day. At the end of the year we have a County Fair!
Grading system
We
use a rubric grading system. (Refer to
Discipline Policy
As
a class we decide on the rules we will obey. We will post them in the room and
everyone will sign it. This contract with each other ensures that we all really
want the same behavior.
Homework
Your child is expected
to copy the homework from the board into their agenda. Homework is posted every
morning. Please read the newsletter for updates in all subjects.
We do not provide
snacks for the students. If your child does not have a snack, she/he will have
to wait until lunch. Some simple snacks
include: popcorn, small plastic bag of cereal, fruit, peanut butter and jelly
sandwich.
Food
Warning
Wake County Schools
restrict food donations to store bought products and dairy products are to be
refined and refrigerated. This is the same as past years.
Lunch
Bunch
No more than four in a
lunch bunch. Please come in five minutes early.
Earth is our home.
Please keep it clean!
We will go on two field
trips this year.
Conferences
We are required to meet twice a year. Sign up will be happen in the fall for both times. We are available upon request.
Notes
If you want to ensure
your message is answered quickly, email it to us. We check email several
times a day. It is easier for us to communicate with parents who provide an
email address. We will answer any note usually the same day. Phone messages
take longer for a response due to our busy schedules.
Our email addresses are
abrandt@wcpss.net and nrigby@wcpss.net
We hope this gives you
an insight to third grade. We will provide more details at our open house.
Thank you
for your support,
Mrs.
Brandt and Ms. Rigsby
