Josh's Third Grade Class

Balance is key in third grade.

We balance projects and skills, process and product, and independence and interdependence.  

Most of all, if we’re not having fun, we have some rethinking to do!

Hi Families,

Here are about half of the pictures from our time at camp. We’ll put the next set up once we’re back from spring vacation. I’m sure they will bring back some exciting memories.

And speaking of memories, remember that today is the last day to order a yearbook. You can click here to place your order.

Have a great break!

Historic Explorations and an Upcoming Adventure

Fri, 2013-04-05 — Josh Goodman

Hi Families,

The weather took a turn for the worse, but things are still bright and cheerful in Room 210! This week, the kids created and presented brochures based on research they did on famous European explorers.  Their work is on display in the hall with Kristel’s amazing bulletin board. If possible, take a moment to stop by and have a look! Read more »

10 days until Waskowitz!

Fri, 2013-03-29 — Josh Goodman

Hi Families,

We’re just over a week away from our trip to Camp Waskowitz. The kids seem very excited and we haven’t even talked about it much in class. Our preparations will really begin next week, and I’m sure the excitement will continue to grow!

 If you have any questions about the trip as it gets closer or need another copy of the gear list, please feel free to let me know.

Thanks a lot!

Josh

Happy bidding!

Hi Families,

What an exciting week in Room 210! We traveled to the EMP as part of our Science of Sound unit and had a chance to both explore some music history and seriously rock out! The kids’ Native American projects wrapped up this week as well. We saw fabulous presentations, learned some dances, and ate a lot of great food. Read more »

Happy Mid-Winter Break

Let's hear it for the homerow!

Typing practice has begun in third grade! The kids each received account information for a web-based program called Typing Agent. The program can be accessed through any web-enabled device, but works best on desktops, laptops, or tablets that are synced to keyboards. Starting next week, we will be adding 1 hour of typing practice per week to the normal homework load. Through my teacher account, I’m able to see how much time each student is spending practicing, so there is no need to fill out any paperwork to keep track of time. Login instructions are coming home with the kids today. Read more »
