Walking Trip to the Invisible Dog


Last Monday, Class 3-207 took a special community walk for Project Lab.  We went with Bee to the Invisible Dog Art Gallery to meet one of her brothers who is an artist!  He showed us some of his work, including the industrial rose gardens, which are made from old buttons and pins from a belt factory.  Then we got to help with a new collaborative art project by scrolling old belts together.  It was a fun way to spend our Monday afternoon!

It's hard to believe that we are almost finished with our second month of school!  We have been very busy, and so far third grade has been lots of fun.  Take a look at what we've been up to...


Working on self portraits on our first day of school

Reading our first published pieces in writing: personal narratives!


Enjoying some choice time!

We have chess each Friday with Mr. Nick.  We like to practice our tactics during choice.

story book character parade

Class 3-207 in Carroll Park


Today we had the story book character parade. It was epic! Two of us were Greek goddesses, three of us were characters from Harry Potter, Jonathan was a character from Lord of the Rings, two of us were Tintin, and there were a lot more FABULOUS costumes. Niko was Super Dipper Baby and Jacob was Captain Underpants.  Sofia and Elizabeth were dressed as Clementine. I don't think anyone will forget today!

A special thank you to all the parents who made our parade and celebration such a success!  We had a great time!
