Highlights of the Day!

Today was an exciting day in 3rd grade! Mrs. Lyford visited us and read a fabulous book about kindness, decision making, feelings and doing what is right.  Please ask your child to tell you all about A Bike Like Sergio's by Maribeth Boelts.  If you ask him/her to review the book with you using a 5 Finger Summary strategy that would be great!

Our second highlight was sharing technology projects.  Students worked on multiple learning intentions/goals for these projects. They included:

• Collaborating with a partner (s).
• Writing summaries for picture books.
• Incorporating dialogue.
• Building scenes with Legos.
• Using the application of "Story Visualizer" on the iPads.
• Writing with proper grammar, spelling and punctuation.
• Presenting as a team.

Ms. Arlyn and Mrs. Christy were very impressed with the final results, students really persevered on these projects!  Pictures of team presentations are below.  The actual projects can be seen via this link, Visualizer Project.  Enjoy!
