Becoming Responsible
Ms. Schallmo, and I would like to thank all the parents who have been working with us to help your children become responsible students. We really appreciate your help in having your child complete their math homework and study their spelling words. We can already see progress in responsibility, and can tell we're going to have a great year. Thanks!
Accelerated Reader
A requirement for our third graders this year is going to be taking AR tests each marking period. For the first marking period each child will need to take two AR tests at his or her Just Right Level. Ms. Schallmo, and I will help each student find a book during library on Monday. They must score 80% or better to pass the test. They should be working on an AR book every week. We suggest having your child read his or her book a couple of times before taking the test.
Student Government
We held our Student Council Elections in our classroom today. Our candidates were Teresa Ashbrook, Lily Blake, Parker Dennings, Nathan Schluckebier, Jordyn Shipps, Nate Deppen, and Paige Smith. All the students did a fantastic job giving their speeches. We want to congratulate all of our students as it took a lot of courage to give a speech in front of the entire class. Our Student Council Representative is Paige Smith and the Alternate is Jordyn Shipps. Congratulations to both of you!

Big Zoo
Wow! What an amazing week we had at the zoo. Thanks to all the parents who took time out of their busy schedules to help us. Mrs. Waterson, Ms. Schallmo, and I couldnt have done it without your help. The children were able to see a number of surgeries, go behind the scenes at the Rhino and Penguin Exhibits, and meet many animals in the classrooms. These are wonderful experiences that theyll never forget. Thanks again for supporting the Big Zoo Lesson!
