We hope everyone enjoyed visiting Grade Three tonight for Curriculum Night! It was a pleasure to talk to you and share our daily routine. As promised, here is the Grade Three video of our first few weeks of school. Enjoy!
In Art with Ms. Krakowski, the Third Graders looked at Wassily Kandinsky's color studies as an inspiration to create their own abstracted corn, as well as explore primary and secondary color. The students created a checkerboard pattern throughout the corn cob, alternating squares of primary and secondary color, while experimenting with Kandinsky's circle pattern.
It might crack up! That was just one of the jokes found on popsicle sticks after the Third Graders enjoyed their cold treats from Mrs. MacDonough on this warm spring day! Thank you, Mrs. MacDonough!
Each year, Grade Three participates in a letter writing project. Students write a friendly letter to anyone in the world. They write to family members, friends, athletes, singers, authors, and many more. One of last year's Third Graders wrote to her favorite video game designer, Scott Cawthon, creator of "Five Nights at Freddy's." Today, a large envelope came addressed to her as a thank you for her fan letter. He autographed a t-shirt and several "Five Nights at Freddy's" toys for her! What a special way to learn about the power of the written word! Have you written a letter to someone recently???
