Say Hello to 3Sp!

K-Buddies

Featured Blogger: Kate

This week in school we had K-buddies. We made oceans with water paint and we did it so that we could remember each other.  We would trade pictures at the end of the year. If you had 2 K-buddies you would have to make 2 pictures and they would give you theirs. Some people put coral reefs in them while other people put animals in them OR they just made it blank. Everybody made beautiful pictures. So I think you should try to make one now.

Field Day in 3Sp!

Featured Blogger: Patrick

We arrived at school then we quickly got ready for our morning portfolio event. Next the parents came and then we presented  to our parents on Thursday. We did the same with our art portfolio. After we went out to start our field day event we started with running and stretching in the morning. Then we did the cup stacking and tire races and more. Then we took a short 5-minute break to get some water, go to the bathroom, or our tents for a little while. After, we did some more races like kangaroo hop  and a pillo polo stick game. Then we had lunch and recess, and some of us helped put things away from Field Day. After we had a few more races then we went straight to tug-of-war for 30 minutes. After, we had our water games like run with water and water balloon toss. Then all three of the tents flew into the woods! At the end of the day we got popsicles then we started to go in and then Mr. DeMayo gave us a ribbon as we walked out! Field Day was super fun!

Field Day

This week in gym 3Sp practiced field day relays.  Field day is when all the classes compete against each other in different activities. Our classes favorite activity is the tug-o-war. It is a lot of fun. We can't wait for field day. Parents are invited!

Buddies

Featured Blogger: Natalia

A few weeks ago we planted seeds with our buddies.  We planted cilantro and basil.  We had to come up with a plan for which herb we wanted and how we were going to plant it and take care of it.  It was sort of hard to keep our buddies on task while we waited to plant our seeds.  

When it was our turn my buddy and I chose cilantro.  First we put dirt in a cup, and then planted our seeds.  Next we watered them.  Since then we’ve been checking on the plants and watering them.  Only some of them have started to grow.  One of them has three sprouts!  Eventually we will try to cook something with them.

3rd Grade Multicultural Assembly

Featured Blogger: Calla

Tomorrow 3rd graders are starring in a multicultural assembly about a old Mexico story about a burro (donkey), a perro (dog), a gato (cat), and a gallo (chicken). There are 2 scenes. The people playing the animals in scene 1 are Mary Cate (burro), Maddie (perro), Hildi (gato), and Charlie R. (gallo). The people playing the animals in scene 2 are Timothy (burro), Taylor (perro), Brook (gato), and Lucas (gallo). I hope the assembly goes well!
