We are mystery detectives! Here are a few snapshots of our mystery readers with their badges and detective notebooks. We are growing in our mystery skills, which will help us read other fiction books as well. This week we found ways to look more carefully for clues we may have missed and to recognize red herrings. Ask your child about this!

In math, we finished Topic 4. Tests will go home on Monday, We learned a lot, and are moving onto another unit involving multiplication and division. 

In science, we began looking at our earth and how farmland is renewable if we take care of it. Very little of our earth contains the topsoil farmland needs to sustain life. Ask your child about the “earth apple”.

In our writing, we are working on writing opinion paragraphs. We created a writing piece and illustration to add to our “3rd grade book of writing” that will go home at the end of 3rd grade!

We had a wonderful Monster Mash on Tuesday! Thank you for the donations to the Jeffers Jive! Our class came in 2nd place overall! The prize is $100 that we can use for our class. We will brainstorm and vote on what we would like to add to our classroom with our winnings! Thank you for your support!

Have a wonderful weekend!
