Our reading challenge wall created with classroom chosen book characters is up and ready for total words read this Friday!!

We had a fun “let’s get pumped up” for state testing assembly yesterday for 3rd-6th grade. There was music, talk of the importance of students doing their best, motivation to earn tickets during testing for working hard, being on time to school and students got to see the prizes they could earn with the tickets. We also had three contests: a hula hoop contests with two teachers and two students. We had a math snowball fight with 6 students and at the end of the snowball fight they had to solve the problem on the snowball closest to them. We had all five teachers chose a student and played a fun game I call snap, clad, head, shoulders and eventually plate. At the end of the game a student had won! At the end of the assembly certificates and medals were given to students that met or exceeded the standard in math and/ or language arts last year. Students also received a certificate and medal for increasing their score by 50 point in math/ and or language arts. The energy was great and it was a lot of fun! We are ready for the state testing and we want students to show up and do their best. MC students rock so they will rock the test also!!

We are having a Reading and Attendance challenge for the next four weeks! Information in the flyer.

Here is some great work depicting the characters from the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Students also created and wrote about a character they created. Great job Miss Clendenning’s 3rd grade class.
