10/14-10/18

When life gives you darkness, you crack open some glow sticks and have a blast reading by the light of a neon glow! Yesterday our room was without power, so I had no access to my computer. Thank you for your patience!

This week we are back to a normal schedule and curriculum with spelling homework resuming and a spelling test on Thursday.

We are now switching our focus to division in math. Please continue to practice multiplication facts daily. Our next test on Topic 4 will happen just before Halloween. 

At this point, all students have chosen a book and character for their character pumpkin book report. Please continue to read and answer the packet questions in complete sentences at home. The packet, book, and the pumpkin are all due on Halloween. Pumpkins can be real (no carving), foam, paper or any creative medium your child wishes. Please e-mail me if you have any questions or need another packet. 

OUR FIRST FIELD TRIP

Next Monday, October 21st we will take our first field trip by bus to the Peter Miller House and Electric Railway to learn more about Avon Lake History. There is no permission form or cost for this field trip. Students will leave Erieview right after lunch at 12:45 and return around 2:30.

For future trips (such as our "big" spring field trip to the Cleveland Science Center), we will send out a sign up genius for volunteers. :)

Ohio State Testing

All 3rd graders will take the OST for Reading on the mornings of Tuesday, October 22nd and Thursday, October 24th from approximately 9:00-11:00. Our specials will switch to the end of the day on those testing days. 

Halloween

Our Erieview Halloween Costume Parade will commence shortly after announcements around 9:00 am on Thursday, October 31st. Look for more information in Mr. Schindler's weekly blast e-mails.  Mrs. Kuhn and Mrs. Lanman will send out information about our class party that will take place at the end of the school day.
