Hello Third Grade Families,
Our PBIS winner this week was Abigail Malham. But remember that Students have MANY different opportunities in the classroom to earn PBIS tickets everyday. Some of the ways are FULLY completing and turning in homework NEATLY and ON TIME. Following ALL directions and NEATLY completing classwork assignments the same day. Memorizing multiplication facts 0 to 12 (the students get 1 ticket for each set of facts memorized.) There will be many more opportunities added through the year.
Next week the students will be emptying their desk on Wednesday the 21st so that our AMAZING maintenance crew can clean the classrooms. This being said PLEASE send in an old backpack or reusable grocery bag that is big and strong enough to hold the weight of the things we keep in our desk. If you are planning to leave before the 21st please be sure to send the backpack in earlier,
As I mentioned in an email through DIRECTORY SPOT I opted to change my shoulder surgery date to the beginning of summer instead of doing it on December 19th. There is so much excitement and fun on these days that I really did not want to miss it all. One tradition that I began in 3rd grade was to have a Christmas Movie and hot chocolate party on the Tuesday before break. Look for more details this week.
