October 2014


      

 What  an amazing beginning to the start of the new year. Our third graders have been adjusting to an increased level of independence. October is the month of responsibility. All of our third graders are expected to take the tools that have been given to them over the past two months and incorporate them into their daily routine.
     We had an awesome field trip to the Broward  Center of Performing Arts. The children loved the show and lunch in the park. They learned all different ways to have fun doing Math. The children also loved walking, and riding there bikes to school. What a great way to exercise and spend time with  friends and family. Red ribbon week was also a huge success. The children learned ways to” Just Say No”.  BAFS which replaced  BAT testing was a success. Your children worked extremely hard to achieve their goals.  Please encourage your child to read daily and take AR tests. These tests  are important to your child’s Reading development. Parents can go to www.ARbookfinder. com to check the AR level of any book.
    Please read  and practice multiplication daily. Don’t forget to check out our website. Looking forward to a productive and fun year.
