Modeling Expectations
This week we have been talking about following expectations in various places around the school. One student stated that it is very important to set an example for others, including other classrooms in our school. Thank you to our students who are doing their best to model expectations!

A Visit from the Red Cross: Preparing for Disaster
Today the Red Cross came to our classroom to talk to us about ways that we can prepare for a disaster. We learned some strategies for what to do if there is a fire in our houses or school. We each got a pillowcase to help us in case of a disaster. Make sure to ask us what we learned about today!

Welcome Kolkebeck's Chemists, Third Grade Class of 2015!!!
Welcome to the very first post of the 2014-2015 school year!
You can find so much information on our blog-- from our schedule, to upcoming events, to what we will be learning in school, AND LINKS TO HOMEWORK!!! My goal is to update our blog at least once per week.
The first week in school, we spent a lot of time learning the expectations of how to be Safe, Respectful Learners. We practiced our expectations at the carpet, our desks, at recess and in the hall (see below).
Our classroom rules this year are:
1. Follow directions quickly
2. Raise your hand for permission to speak
3. Raise your hand for permission to leave your desk
4. Use kind words and actions
5. Help everyone learn
Try to discuss some of these rules with your child at home. Why are they important? What does it look like to follow these rules?
