Hello Grade Three Community,
What a busy week last week was! Thank you to all parents for attending P/T conferences. If there is anything else you wish to discuss, please feel free to email me to set-up a time to meet. Also, Dressfest was a success again this year. I'm always amazed how much time and thought goes into the students costumes. Great job!
This week we have a quiet, but busy week as we're about to start some end-of-term projects. One such project is Project Build. The students will be working as construction companies solving a structural problem. This project is based on Inquiry Theory, which states that authentic learning happens when students are presented with a problem and must work together, through various steps, to solve the problem. At the end of November the students will actually be building their planned structural object. We will be needing parent participation to make this project successful. One such way you can help is to save recycled items. Because we are a sustainable classroom, we will be building using recycled materials such as; plastic containers, boxes, toilet paper rolls, string...etc. Also on November 26th you will be invited to come to see the presentation of these structures. This will take place at 2:00 pm on Friday, November 26th.
Thanks again for your continual support,
Mrs. Kullman

Hello Grade three community!
Wow, what a great day we had on Thursday! The Vancouver Writer and Readers festival was amazing. Both authors did a great job of giving us a look into the life of a professional writer. I'm looking forward to the connections students made to their own life as a writer/reader. Below you'll find the schedule for this week. Please note, because of Parent/Teacher interviews Wednesday AND Thursday are early dismissal days (1:10).
Friday is DRESSFEST!!!!! This is a very exciting and fun day for our students. Feel free to be creative with your kids costumes, but please refrain from scary costumes! We will be having our yearly pep rally. At 2:00 that day we will be playing games and having some class free-time. If you are wanting to bring in treats, please pack them with your child to be given to me upon arrival at school or else feel free to drop by between 2:10 and the end of the day.

Happy Thanksgiving!
It's now October, and the Fall winds have definitely chilled the air. During our fire drill today, we were all cold. Today I'm sending home a notice about our Thanksgiving dinner. Since my first year of teaching, I've always had the tradition of celebrating Thanksgiving with a special luncheon and fun afternoon. Please feel free to talk to me if you are unsure of what to bring.
Thank you for your continually support and prayers!

Field Trip Update & Other News
Hello Parents,
I just wanted to let you know that I will be attending a workshop this coming Friday, October 1st. I will be returning to school at 2:30. Also I wanted to let you know that we were able to secure a bus for the October 21st field trip. Thank you to all parents who showed interest in during us. Permission forms will be going home October 15th for the field trip, but I wanted to give parents prior notice in case you are wanting to join us for this awesome experience. I have purchased tickets for the students and 5 adults. I currently have only one parent tickets available. If you are wanting to come please email me as soon as possible. Last years show sold out quickly and we were limited with how many parents we could take. There are some tickets left at this point, and I would love to have as many parents are possible there. So if you're interested please visit http://www.writersfest.bc.ca/2010festival/tickets. Our workshop is #23 Down here, Up there. Please purchase your own tickets and then let me know you're coming!
Thanks,
Miss Wyville (10 days to go!)

Hello Grade Three Community,
Things are really moving in grade three! We've established a great flow and rhythm to the day, and I'm very pleased to say that your children are doing well! My goal this year is to help transition them towards independence. In class, I emphasize accountability with regards to their agenda getting signed, filling out their home reading sheets, and being personally responsible for their belongings. The morning routine is that students bring their own backpacks into the classroom where they put their lunches in their locker and bring agendas to their desk. I ask for your assistance in allowing your child to do this independently. In the morning parents are encouraged to say goodbye at the door.
In other news, I'm excited to announce an upcoming field trip. On October 21 we will be attending the Vancouver Reader and Writers Festival. We will be listening to two authors speak about their books, and going on a picnic (weather permitted) afterward. The festival is on Granville Island, and will be from 9-1 pm. Unfortunately, that week all buses are being used, so to make this happen we need parent drivers. Currently, we have five drivers and are in need of three more. Please let me know ASAP if you can accompany us on that day.
Wishing you a great week,
Melissa Wyville
