Respect

During the second quarter we were working on the character trait of respect. At the end of the quarter I chose one student that I felt always displays this trait. I chose Isabel Allen. She was recognized at our quarterly assembly yesterday. Below is a picture of her with her award.

February News from Mr. Dunlap

During the month of February the second, third, and fourth grades will
be doing a variety of indoor activities during their PE time. Some of
these activities include; volleyball, the climbing wall, scooters, and
playing with the parachute.

The Polar Express

On Wednesday, December 22nd, we had Polar Express Day here in 3S. We started out the day by wearing our pajamas and slippers to school. We went to the gym for our Christmas sing along, and then we got to have hot chocolate and donuts while Miss Smith read us the book. After we read the book we talked about what it would mean to get the first gift of Christmas and then we wrote about what we would choose as the first gift. In the afternoon we got to watch the movie. At the end of the day we filled out a venn diagram comparing the book and movie. We had a great day in 3S!

January Note From Mr. Dunlap

During the month of January the second, third and fourth grades will
be playing floor hockey. It will be important for students to wear
their PE shoes along with their snow boots on Tuesday and Friday.
Other activities planned for the month of January include; tumbling,
the climbing wall, ABC ladders and fitness games.

Cooler Weather

Just a reminder that we have reached that time when the kids need to be more prepared for recess. We do ask that all kids have a heavy coat, a hat, and gloves for all recesses. If there is snow on the ground they must have boots, a change of shoes, and snow pants to go off hard surface. Thank you for your help in making sure your child is prepared, as we will go outside unless it is below zero.

Polar Express Day in 3S

On Wednesday, December 22, we will be having Polar Express Day in 3S. The students may wear their pajamas and bring their slippers to wear also. We will be reading the book in the morning while having hot chocolate and donuts. We will also do a related writing assignment. We will watch the movie in the afternoon. This is a memorable day for my students every year and I really enjoy it.

Book Orders

A new book order is coming home with your child today! Books make great gifts for Christmas. If you would like to order a book for your child, you may do so by ordering online and just send me a quick email that it is for your child. That way when the order comes in I can notify you to pick up the book instead of sending it home with your child. Remember our class receives free books for you ordering online!

Book Orders are due Tuesday, December 7th.
