- *Review and Unit 1 Test Week*: This week students will review all comprehension, grammar, phonics, and vocabulary skills during the first half of the week and will take the Unit 1 test the last half of the week. This is a big test comprised of 43 questions covering all the skills previously mentioned. Because it is such a large test, we will break the test into 2-3 days. Please ensure your child is well rested and well fed so that he/she can do their best! This is the third out of four major reading test grades for this 9 weeks.

- International Day - October 8th
- Curriculum Night: October 22nd - There will be a music program followed by an opportunity for parents to break into grade level meetings to hear about the standards that will be addressed in the 2nd 9 weeks, and how parents can help their students at home.
- Please remember that any homework given is something Mrs. Stewart and I feel is necessary. Please ensure your child is completing homework on time!
- 3rd grade is a big year in terms of responsibility. PLEASE encourage your child to be responsible for writing down homework each day, completing homework and studying for tests, as well as getting the necessary things signed. Please do not do things for them, rather encourage students to be responsible! Thank you! :-)
- Please be sure to check your child's tickets and important notes each night.
- SCHOLASTIC BOOKS - Your child will bring home a Scholastic Book brochure this week. I encourage you to check out the books and possibly offer to purchase one for your child as a reward, incentive, etc. These are great, quality books at a terrific price! To order, simply click below!
