Happy New Year to everyone. Please remember the grades for quarter two close this Friday, with report cards coming out the following Friday.

This week we will focus our social studies learning of Black History on Martin Luther King Jr. We've been learning about the Civil Rights Movement and will continue to look at MLK Jr.'s impact on this movement.

Please remember to have students continue to practice their multiplication facts. At this point in the year, all third graders should have mastered x0, x1, x2, x10, x11, x5, and x3 facts. All of our math homework this week will focus on building our multiplication and division understanding.
