Finally! Some Pictures!

Mrs. Owen has not had good luck with technology lately! First, her laptop messed up, then her camera wouldn't upload pictures, and the final straw was when her phone quit working last week!!! I think we are back on track now, so here are some pictures from some of our fun activities over the past couple of months!

Fairy Tale Websites

When you have finished Successmaker, you may go to this website: Speak-a-Boo Fairy Tales. There are videos you may watch, as well as games you can play. DO NOT CLICK ON PRINTABLES! You are not allowed to print at school!

This website will help you prepare for the Fairy Tale Brain Brawl, which is coming up in just a few weeks!

We're Back on Track!

Owen's Reading Classes: We have resumed Imagine It! We are beginning a new unit: Unit 6 Lesson 1. Our new unit is titled Storytelling.

Expect spelling words and vocabulary words to go home today (the vocab. is a homework page tonight.) Because of our field trip on Friday, we will test on Thursday of this week.

In  addition to Imagine It!, we are also studying fairy tales. We watched Beauty and the Beast on Friday, as well as Cinderella. So far, we have read The Three Little Pigs, Red Riding Hood, and The Gingerbread Boy. We have also reviewed the story "Beauty and the Beast", from our textbook in the beginning of the year. We found the story was a lot different than the Disney version of the movie!

Let's Celebrate!

FCAT IS OVER!!!

I know our students showed what they know this week. I am so proud of all of you for your hard work, and for showing your outstanding test taking behavior.

We're having a "chill out" day in third grade today. Our hard workers deserve it! 

Enjoy your weekend, and do something FUN to congratulate yourself on a job well done!

FCAT is Coming!

Can you believe FCAT will be here in just a few weeks?!?! We will test on April 16th, 17th, 18th, and 19th, beginning promptly at 9:00. PLEASE BE SURE YOUR CHILD IS AT SCHOOL ON TIME THESE DAYS!

Reading Parents: Our class has suspended Imagine It for the next two weeks. There will be no spelling words, no vocabulary, and no Friday tests. We are working on test taking skills, reviewing the reading skills we have practiced throughout the year, and are taking a few more FCAT Practices before the big week arrives.

Be sure you are continuing to work with your child nightly on both reading and math skills so they are fully prepared for FCAT week!
