Science

Through our life science unit, we have watched caterpillars turn into butterflies and insects turn into ladybugs. We also have tadpoles that we are keeping an eye on! Also in science, we had the opportunity to dissect owl pellets!

September book project

September book projects were puzzles that the kids made after reading a realistic fiction book. They did an awesome job with this project!

First Field Trip

The first field trip of the year was a success! (September 24th, 2012)

Biography Book Projects

During the month of March, the third graders each read a different biography (or in some cases, autobiography) book. After reading the book, they wrote a speech from the point of view of their character, and created a "poster person" or costume based on what they learned. They did a GREAT job with this! I have pictures of each presentation- let me know if you'd like me to email you a copy!

Which is Better- the New Way or the Old Way?

I think the old way for bookbinding is better because the pepole who did the book do a good job. The new way is good but the pages are easy to rip. so that's why it is better the old way. -Cassidy

I think dogs should be a dollar becoase people want dogs but they dont have any money and they want a friend! I have 2 dogs one is named Pippa and the other one is Harrey! There there the cutist puppies EVER!!!!!!!!!!!! I'v had other dogs in the past but they died. THE PRICES FOR DOGS ARE TO HIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MY NEW DOG WAS ALMOST $ 100!!!!- Katherine

Is it Better to be Rich or Happy?

I think it's better to be happy because when you're happy then you don't have to worry about money(money can make you unhappy!) for example, you don't have to count money or spend it.
Another reason I think it's betterto be happy rather than rich is if you re happy then you don't have to be like this"Where should I hide my money next, here there or where!'' And that does not sound happy:)! -Sarah C.
