Thank you for all of your support and contributions in making this week a special event. Students will be garnishing pies tomorrow. Today, they are arriving with 'reigndeer' food and a Santa "TOGO" Snack Sack. Students came up with great healthy alternatives for Santa to take with him instead of eating 30+ cookies from our class alone. Again, thank you for the support. :) Have a blessed time with family and a wonderful 2012!

We've Been Adopted!

Thank you, Vivi's mom! We'll use the $100 toward a class subscription along with Bianca's mom's contribution of $20, which will help in the cost of the subscription. We didn't have the necessary 10 responses for the subscription discount, but now, we can order it for everyone! :) Thanks again for all of the parental support!

Thank You For Attending Open House

It was great seeing all of you. Please use this site to download the wealth of resources provided free from the Department of Education. The 3 corner cards are available at ACE ecucation or Get Smart stores as well as the link online. Scholastic Book Club orders can be ordered directly online and will be delivered to the class. I made some recommendations. Each student can purchase Dolphin Tales for reading before an up-coming field trip. Scholastic is tax free and offers free shipping. :) Again, I look forward to a rewarding year working with you. Thank you again for your support.

Welcome Parents!

Welcome to third grade. The students picked the name for the blog. Mostly, the student blog, www.extremeteam1112.blogspot.com will be used for posting activities/information for enhanced learning experiences. This site will have parental information. You may also use the site to communicate with other parents and share helpful information, ideas, and/or resources. I hope you find the site useful and the year enjoyable. I look forward to working together with all of you. :)
