Please Don't See Your Shadow Mr.Groundhog!

• We had a very special visitor this week when Colby's Nanny Faye came to read to the class. The students really enjoyed her visit and she and I were extremely impressed at how respectful the students were. We are looking forward to having Claire's Nanny come read to us this coming Wednesday.
• We are already four chapters into our Novel and the students are really starting to connect with the characters and plot of Strange Lake Adventure. I love to see them so engaged and upset when the chapters are over. I am also hearing that some of you parents are hooked into the story too, which is also great to hear.
• This week we put the finishing touches on our class book, The Best Parts of Grade 3. We have started to send the book home with one student each night. We hope that you enjoy it and be sure to read who they dedicated the book to, it will melt your heart. (We are still missing a picture for the front cover, as we have been waiting for a day when everyone is at school to get a new class picture.)
• This week we will presenting our slide shows to our Book Buddies, so students will be practicing their presentations at home from their printed handouts.Our little buddies are going to be so excited to see our Smart board lit up with information and pictures of themselves.
• This Monday is Drink and Food Order Day.
