Dear Parents and Students,

Another week has flown by!  The third graders are all doing very well.

Next week is going to be a super fun week!  On Wednesday is our annual Fancy Dress Day!  It is a very exciting event for all of us!  Well, my costume is ready to be worn!  I cannot wait!  Excitement!!!!  Parents, you are more than welcome to come and join us on Wednesday, October 26^th.  All the classes will be gathered on the basketball court at 9.20am. Look out for the third and fourth graders!  We have a fun song and dance to share with you all!!! 

There will be no school next week Thursday and Friday, October 27^th and 28^th.  It is our midterm break.  The following Monday, October 31^st, is only school for all the teachers.  Students, enjoy the extra day off!

Students will be getting an assignment for November 1^st.  They have to complete a book report.  The book report forms will be given to them on October 26^th.  Also Students, keep in mind that November 10^th is getting closer.  That is the big day of our Science Presentations.  We want the public to be aware of endangered animals.  So please make sure you spend a lot of time on your presentation.  Use your time wisely!  J

On November 3^rd we will have our HIS Fun Day.  All the students got their teams and themes.  Students, dress up like your theme.  It will add to the spirit, fun and success of the Fun Day.  Watch out for me!  I will be a FARMER!!! J

Science:  We will be working on the Science Presentations.

Social Studies:  We will study and finish Chapter 5.

Reading:  We read a new story in Week 8, Dancing Rainbow.  We will do more activities based on this story in Week 9.
