News from Ms. Doerr's Room
3rd Grade
Greetings from Room 205
I can't believe the 3rd quarter ends on Friday! We have been so focused and busy with our preparations for IREAD and ILEARN. IREAD will be from 9:00-10:30 on March 18, 19, and 20th. Please be sure to avoid absences and tardies on these dates. Please be sure your child comes to school with plenty of rest and a full breakfast on these days, as well. The kids are well prepared for IREAD academically, but this can be quite a stressful time for them, as they are aware of the high stakes of this test. At school, we will do extra mindfulness exercises to reduce stress and lots of positive affirmations. We will also be doing several fun STEM activities that are hands-on and use the scientific method after the testing times.
A week ago, I sent a manilla envelope home labeled "for parents' eyes only". Inside, there are cards for you and other family members to write positive notes to your child for the testing days. I can not tell you how happy these make the kids feel, knowing they are supported at home during this testing time. I must have these returned by Friday, March 15th so that I can see who doesn't have messages from home. REMEMBER: THESE ARE A SECRET/SURPRISE FOR YOUR CHILD! If you did not receive the envelope, please let me know so I can resend one.
Class Store on Friday, March 22
Our class store will open the last day before Spring Break. If you haven't donated to our store yet this year, please consider doing so this time. The kids have worked incredibly hard and deserve to shop for great items!
