Mrs. McDonald's 3rd Grade Class

Brrrr! It's cold outside!

Dear Parents,

There's lots of learning going on in Third Grade! Last week, we were Ecologists for a day, multiplied 2 digits by 1 digit, worked on a book study, and this week we will start writing about a memorable first. So proud of our 3rd graders. They are almost ready for 4th Grade! 

SAVE THE DATES:  We have so many memorable activities planned for the end of the year!  Third grade has a tradition of ending the school year with a camping unit. The objectives will include students researching a Texas state park and planning an imaginary camping trip to that park, but we will do much more than that. This unit will involve all content areas: Reading, Writing, Math, Social Studies, and Science.  Below is a list of days when we will need parent volunteers so you can start planning ahead. Thank you!

May 18th: Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center Field Trip. All parents are welcomed to attend and/or volunteer to be a chaperone. Information/forms will go home in May regarding this field trip.

May 21: “Fishing Day” at Trailhead Park from 8:30-11:00.
​All activities are planned. Each class will need 3 parents to help at the stations. Signup info will be sent out in the next few weeks.

May 23: Campout Day
Parent chaperones are not needed, but each class will need four tents pitched outside CCE. Please let me know if you have a tent that we could borrow, and are willing to put it up that morning before school. 

I truly appreciate all your support!

Gratefully,
Mrs. McDonald
