Third Grade Families

August 28, 2013

Hello Third Grade Families,

Welcome to third grade! My name is Chrissy Senecal and I am thrilled to be your child’s teacher. It is sure to be a year of learning and adventure!

Third grade is a very important year. Your child will become an explorer, a mathematician, and an author! I would love to start the year by becoming a partner with you in your child’s education. We will spend a lot of time during the first few weeks of school getting to know each other, building a community, and practicing classroom and school expectations.

Please help your child have a successful year by checking their homework folder and assignment log every evening. This folder includes:

ü Assignment Log – write down reading minutes and initial daily*

ü Spelling List and Menu – follow weekly schedule*

ü Math Homework – complete daily

ü Classroom Schedule and Contact Information

ü Lined Paper – parent and teacher communication

ü Math Dictionary – help with math homework

* will be collected each Friday

We will begin this homework schedule during the second week of school. Please complete the beginning of the year paperwork on the “right back to school” side and return in your child’s homework folder as soon as possible.

I look forward to meeting you. We will have a wonderful year!

Love,

Ms. Senecal
