Book Orders and Pocket Books

Today just flew right by! My goodness!

Today we started a new genre in reading and we are going to spend the next couple of weeks reading about fairy tales and folktales - two of my favorites! We made big books that have pockets in them to keep track of all of the stories we cover and they were very time consuming but turned out really well!

We also started learning about the Human Body in science. To keep track of all of our human body information we made another pocket book with all of the different body systems on the pockets so the students can keep track of their information and use it for quizzes and tests. Plus, all of their work stays organized that way! Bonus! We are going to start with the skeletal system first starting tomorrow. I can't wait!

Book orders also came home today and are due March 23rd, which is next Tuesday. If you don't like having to keep track of the paper forms and write checks, feel free to order online. You get a free book and so does the class so we all win! The login information is as follows:

Go to www.scholastic.com/bookclubs
Click on parent and continue
Then, login in with our information. The login name is FrontierThirdGrade and the password is order
Then, you are ready to order!

The orders usually arrive within 7 days of ordering so the books should be here before Easter break.

Just as a reminder, this week is a full week, with St. Patrick's Day on Wednesday (don't forget your green!). Also, next Friday is the end of the semester so the students are out at noon so the teachers can enter their grades. There is a lot of work that needs to be caught up on still so make sure your student is working hard and turning in their work!

Have a great evening, enjoy our beautiful weather, and see you tomorrow!
