March Third Grade Newsletter
A Note From the Teachers
March is a packed month with lots of learning and hopefully warmer weather!.
We will be going on two field trips this month, one to Tredegar Iron Works with Blue Sky Fund to learn about simple machines and the other to the Math Science Innovation Center. This hands on experiences will be great for our students to have fun learning the content!
Students are also getting in on March Madness with our Tournament of Books! Students will be voting for their favorites read all month long in hopes of their's becoming the 2019 Championship Book! Encourage your students to be reading every night this month as well.
We can't thank you enough for all your support. Again, please let us know if you need anything.
Sincerely,
The Third Grade Team
Mrs. Wozniak, Ms. Boyd, Ms. Kilgore, Ms. Dietz, Mrs. Smith, Dr. Shelton
