The third graders took their math test today.  In Social Studies, we looked at different American symbols:  flag, seal, eagle, Liberty Bell, and Uncle Sam.  We looked a little at the history of the American flag and the Star Spangled Banner.  The students made thank you cards for veterans they know or for any veteran and included some of those American symbols in their cards. 

The Veterans Assembly is tomorrow at 2:00.

This afternoon, we got to pack shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child!  In partners, the students picked whether they wanted to pack a girl box or boy box.  Then they went down the tables, filling their boxes with a variety of items.  At the end, they prayed for the children that their shoeboxes would go to.  That was incredible to watch how sincerely the students prayed for those children! 

A couple students from our class got to go to Yoplicity in a limo today as a reward for being top earners for Fall Fest! 

Tomorrow, students can retake the 50 states quiz. 

Homework for today is...
Vocabulary p. 45
Singular possessive nouns p. 47
Spelling p. 39-40
