Week 25

3U had an awesome week!  Students arrived on Monday, refreshed and ready to learn!  They always seem to have grown so much after a vacation.  We had one of our best weeks yet.  We launched a new unit in math, linking multiplication and division.  Students were given equations and wrote story problems to match.  In reading we began a new unit on character studies.  We are starting to notice patterns of behavior in our characters and coming up with deeper theories about who they are as people and why.  During writing workshop students wrote persuasive speeches about needing more magazines in our school library and backing up their opinions with reasons.  Finally we enjoyed our whole school reward of the entertaining circus show (which included 4 stars from our class!)
