Dr. Seuss Day!

We started Dr. Seuss’s Birthday by dropping everything to get comfy and read for 30 minutes!

Next, we shared our Habitat projects with each other :)




Then, we had some NOHS football players come to our class and read! It was so sweet to watch my students look up to the high schoolers as role models... and for the high schoolers to feel important 👏🏻




We even shared our projects with them 🤗

STEM challenge

We are studying animal’s physical and behavioral adaptations right now in science. Students were given materials and told to make 3 different bird beaks that would adapt to pick up marbles (berries), toothpicks (worms), and smarties (bugs). Once each group made their beaks, they had to test each beak for 30 seconds to see how much food it would pick up. When they finished collecting their data, they graphed and analyzed their results on the computer.

Valentine’s Day Shenanigans

Finding area and perimeter of construction paper hearts with our candy hearts! We then graphed our results ❤️

We read a book called “Somebody Loves Mr. Hatch”. The the kids learned that complimenting/loving others will make people happier and the best version of themselves! We then filled out each other’s compliment cards... it was really sweet to watch them love on each other! 




Passing out valentines!!!

Colonial Day

We had such a fun day traveling back in time to the Colonial Period!! I loved watching the students have an authentic learning experience 👍🏻



We used our natural resources like the colonists did and made our own ink for our feather pens. Ben is squeezing the blueberries to get all the juice out!

Students dipped their feathers in the blueberry ink they made and tried to write a letter like they did back in the colonial days! 

100 days smarter in 3rd grade

We started our 100th day in 3rd grade by creating bridges with 100 popsicle sticks! The challenge was to create a bridge that could hold the most weight. A second part to the challenge was to also create a bridge that was the most aesthetically pleasing. 

The winners were Ella, Alanna Grace, and Finley! Their bridge held over 1 kilogram 👏🏻

Next, I posed another 100th day challenge! Students had 7 task cards to work through. Each card had 4 numbers. They needed to use all 4 numbers and all operations (x, +,-, and /) to create an equation that equaled 100.

Even though third grade aged us a bit, we are thankful for these 100 days together. We had such a fun day being being 100 years old and celebrating being 100 days smarter 👵🏻👍🏻

Martin Luther King Jr.

On Friday, our class read a biography about the bravery and courage that Martin Luther King Jr. showed when standing up for what he believed in! We created a class banner to honor him. Their favorite quote from him was that he wanted to “meet hate with love” ❤️

We started our fun day with a MBES Christmas sing along 🎶
