Welcome to Third Grade

Get ready for a super year! We are going on a learning adventure! Some things to anticipate are:

*Fun Field Trips *Cursive Writing *Multiplication *Keyboarding

*Pioneer Activities *Cultural Activities * “And much, much more!”

We would like to get to know all of our students as soon as possible. Each student is asked to bring in a paper bag with five items inside. Each item should represent something about the student. Some ideas might be a basketball to represent a favorite sport, picture of their family, stamp from a stamp collection, etc. Fragile or valuable items are not encouraged. Each child has been assigned a day for sharing his/her personality bag. Your child is scheduled for ____________________________.
