A category for all things 3rd grade.
Suddenly here it is… last day of school. Third grade was hard but fun. I learned about fractions and math and writing. I’m excited about getting my hair colored blue, green and yellow at the Last Day Fair.
With lots of tickets and fun things to do and awesome food to snack on and my friends and teachers! – it doesn’t get any better than this.
STAR tests started this week at school! Yay, that means NO HOMEWORK for a week!
Tues (5/5) – Language Arts and Math: PIECE OF CAKE
Wed (5/6) – Math: NO PROBLEM
Thu (5/7) – Language Arts and Math : EASY PEASY
Fri (5/8) – Language Arts: ALMOST PERFECT
ALL DONE!
AMS is “Student of the Week” from May 11 to May 15. Woo hoo!
SO MUCH ENERGY AND CREATIVITY!
The annual sock hop event was anticipated all year long. Finally it happened. And this year it was a benefit for the 5th graders (for their annual overnight field trip) with all the grades welcome. Also new this year is the 1960’s Hippie Theme. Having some old artifacts from that time on hand, AMS got all decked out in some authentic vintage clothing and accessories. Totally groovy…

You can get electricity from the sun using solar cells. That means it is possible to reduce greenhouse gas production by using electricity from sunlight. But many things can affect the amount of electricity from solar cells. Here are some things that will do that: trees, houses, clouds, time of year, and where you live in the world.

8th birthday…so sweet and sassy.
AMS won a spa basket at the school raffle! The principal announced it on the school’s PA system and when she heard her name, she whooped it up and screamed! Her whole class screamed! The principal then asked her to come to the school office and claim her price – when she saw it, AMS yelled “Sweet Jesus!”. The principal and school staff got a huge kick out of it.
This year, AMS made her Halloween costume as part of a project for school. She chose an Ohlone Native Girl costume. With some research, she was able to copy the style.
Of course, she had to wear the costume to the annual Halloween parade at school.

Hi my name is Sayanta. I come from the village of Matalan. I speak Tamyen, a language of the Ohlone Native Americans. I am a very busy girl. The first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is fetch water from the stream and fill the water basket in our tule hut. My parents tell me I was born nine seasons (years) ago. I will show you how to make clothes in the Ohlone style.
