Advice for next year

Article posted June 23, 2009 at 01:51 PM GMT0 • comment (7) • Reads 5564

I can't believe that we're in the last few days of school. It's been wonderful reading and sharing ideas about books with you. You have all grown so much as readers, and I love to read your great thoughts. You can keep visiting our blog and wiki as long as you want. For our last blog assignment, please add a comment to this article. Leave some advice for next year's class. What should they expect in third grade? What did you learn? How did technology help you to be a better student? Thanks again for a fantastic year, and have a great summer! Blog on! Mrs. Harper

Winter Reading Excitement

Article posted February 10, 2009 at 02:24 AM GMT0 • comment (1) • Reads 837

Dear boys and girls,

We have been reading some exciting books in our book groups. Each one is about a character who has to face big challenges in order to survive.

It has been great to read all of your articles about your reading, and to see the interesting comments you are leaving for each other. You are becoming wonderful digital learners.

Blog On!

Fall Flew By... and Your Second Assignment

Article posted November 24, 2008 at 01:15 AM GMT0 • comment (5) • Reads 2461

Dear boys and girls,

It's hard to believe that we've already reached Thanksgiving time, and soon we'll have the excitement of the holidays in December. You have been such great bloggers, and I love to read your conversations about your reading.

We have been studying the books of Chris Van Allsburg, one of my favorite authors. For your next blog assignment, please post a comment about one of his books that you have read. Tell us the title and what you thought was interesting about the book. Did you notice any similarities between it and any of his other books?

It should be interesting to read your ideas about the work of this great author.

Blog On!

We're off to a great start!

Article posted September 25, 2008 at 06:13 PM GMT0 • comment (13) • Reads 6823

Boys and girls, it's easy to see how much you love to read. This year, my goal is to help you become a better reader by learning how to think more about what you are reading. Our Literature Circles will help you with this.

Here's your first blog assignment:
We just read Zen Shorts in class and discussed what lesson about life the author was trying to teach us. Add a comment to this article that tells something that you thought was interesting in the book.

I'm looking forward to reading your thoughts!

It's been a great year!

Article posted June 23, 2008 at 05:52 PM GMT0 • comment (31) • Reads 6522

It's hard to believe our year in third grade is over already! We have learned and grown so much.

For our last blog assignment, please add a comment to this article. Tell us what you thought was the most exciting thing you learned. How did technology (blog, wiki, SMARTBoard, portaportals) make learning better for you? What advice would you give to next year's class?

I can't wait to read your replies. Thanks for a wonderful year together.

Love,

Mrs. Harper

New Zealand students are back in school

Article posted February 7, 2008 at 02:23 AM GMT0 • comment (1) • Reads 244

It is interesting to see that not everyone has the same school year that we do. Right now, New Zealand is having warm, sunny weather--and we are having an ice storm!

Once they get settled into their new routine, we hope to become blog pals. Right now, my students might enjoy visiting Ms. Hayes' blog to learn more about their beautiful island. Maybe we can wish ourselves into an early spring!

Blog on!
