dot day!

Hi I'm Aidan Martinson and I'm  going to tell you about Dot Day. Well first of all, you should get the book because it's awesome.  It's called "The Dot" by Peter Reynolds.  Ok back to explaining how we celebrate it.  When you make a mark and see where it takes you, the mark you begin with can take you anywhere.  It is letting you know that you are just fine the way you are!  And also it's fun to wear dot stuff. I put a dot shirt on it was filled with
dots but some people had very little dots.  Even the teachers wore dots!  Lunch time was the best!!!!! I had a circle sandwich, I know right so good!  The end was sad, we had to leave from school!

Being A Cartographer

Hi my name is Ethan my favorite thing so far was being a cartographer in social studies. First we went out side and sorted in to our groups. I could tell the group that I was in was exited so was I. Mrs. Schuh got our attition and started telling us what a cartographer does I learned that cartographers make maps.so we started to draw our maps. I kept thinking this is so awesome I am going to be a cartographer. The experience was awesome I had a lot of fun and learned a lot with my teammates.

Our First Teamwork Party

This first blog post of 2013-2014 was written by the entire team of Schuh's Stars! 
     A Teamwork Party is a party that celebrates the work we have done as a team!  We made silent transitions, many other classes and teachers complimented our class and teamwork, we listened to each other and lived the CLAYMO promise, and we worked together as a team!  It feels really good to earn our first teamwork party!  We voted as a team and the choice that won was to have a P.J. Day.  It feels great to learn in our comfy pajamas and it makes us feel even more like a team because we are doing this together!  We are really looking forward to earning more Teamwork Parties this year!

 

About Swimming

Mr. Hutson told us the rules of swimming at the center.  The rules are no jumping and no rough play in the water.  I shared my goggles with DJ.  Mr. Hutson let me show how to do the moves.  I floated on my back with my arms out.

Writing Celebrations In Forts

I'm LuLu and I'm here to tell you about writing celebrations in forts. We got into groups and built forts, once the forts were built we all got inside our groups' fort. Then we shared our all about book or our literary essay with our group. I think the activity was really cool because we were all in a fort and we also shared our writing pieces. I got to hear really great writing and build a fort!

Hi my name is Jonah. We had a special guest come in two days ago. Her name was Ms.Holly. She taught us about sound and music. She brought two guitars with her. We got to strum the strings. She also brought this giant rubber band called a co-oper band. People got on the ends of the co-oper band and Ms.Holly plucked it. It vibrated for a few seconds. Then we decided to go outside and do it. Once we got inside she gave us these bells and we played songs with them. Then we asked some questions. She answered them. Once we did not have any more questions Ms.Holly played a song on the guitar. The song was called twist and shout. Then she had to leave. We said thank you to her and then she left. It was really fun.

Character Meet and Greet

Hi! My name is Juju. I want to tell you about the character meet and greet. It's about telling people in other class rooms in third grade about you. What we did is dress up into the  character you are. We went to different class rooms and we meet up with them then tell them about who you are and what book you are in. Then we told them a little about the book but not all of it. When we went to the other class rooms we brought our reading notebook. In the reading notebook we went to the some day list page. The some day list is for books you might read or you want to read.We had about ten min. to share with other people. You mostly tell them about what you are like and about you. All the teachers dressed up too. Thanks for reading!
