Last Day...Bittersweet for sure!

We had such an awesome last day of school!

We began with a walk to the DePere Cinema and watched Trolls. There were so many cute moments when all the 3rd grades broke out in song with the movie. That reminded me about how awesome this group is and just how much I am going to miss them!

After we spent some time at Legion Park, we came back to school and had a Karate assembly. The class learned the importance of "Focus your eyes. Focus your ears. Focus your mind. Focus your body."

Of course the last day of school would not be the same without some class selfies!

Kylie here is the picture I promised you! :)

Have a Krazy Kool summer 3rd graders! I will miss you like Krazy! ;) Come back and visit me next fall when I will be Mrs. Kershek! :)

Some Final Fun Activities :)

Today we went to a fourth grade classroom and learned about the different expectations they will have in fourth grade. Our class also spent time creating slide presentation for next year's third graders. I will invite students back in the fall to present their slide presentation to my class next year. They spent a lot of time thinking about their favorite things in 3rd grade and also what students need to remember to be successful in 3rd grade. 

We also finished our summer writing project! Everyone wrote either about what they are going to do this summer or what they would like to do this summer! This writing was attached to their sunglasses and then they created their self-portrait. Everyone's picture turned out super cute!

Informational Reading Unit

The class has been working so hard in our last reading unit. This unit was a repeat of our informational unit earlier in the year. This time the class has been working a ton more independently. They have been reading TrueFlix books of their choosing from the LMC ebooks site and then creating summaries about what they learned. They are becoming quite skilled at putting what they read in their own words!

They can access the Trueflix books at home with:

Feel free to utilize this all summer long! :)
