Good evening!

Today it is I, Mrs. Haun, posting for the class.  We began the day with our last Study Island reading benchmark, and I was thrilled about how intensely, carefully, and quietly the class worked.  It certainly showed up in the scores!  SO MANY improvements!  It seems that our hard work is paying off.  After that, the class played their recorders in music.  We raced through Rocket Math and had some catch-up time before lunch.  Today was the first green light recess in what seemed like months!  After recess, we switched teachers for math.  My math class worked on fractions, but other classes worked on measurement.  Then it was time for our class picture for the yearbook, and after eating a little snack and free writing, we walked to the gym for a yearbook picture of the whole third grade!  There were so many students!  We were lucky to have a Dental Health assembly in the LGI.  We saw pictures of what could happen to our teeth if we don't brush and floss--YUCK!  I left for a meeting, and Mrs. Blizzard watched the class until the end of the day (which is why no students could post today).  I actually saw her at the grocery store after school, and she commented on how respectful and well-behaved my class was.  Since Mrs. Blizzard complimented the class, I will put a 3rd (!!!) cotton ball into the cup for the day.  We are getting closer and closer to a class party!

Here's hoping to many more 3-cotton-ball days to come!

Mrs. Haun :-)
