3rd Grade Stories So Far...

Lockeland Dreamin'
This year our school's theme is "Lockeland Dreamin', What lifts you? The theme makes me think of the goals and dreams I have. I hope one day to become a photographer or a kindergarten teacher. I can achieve that goal of being a photographer by taking pictures and practicing. I know that if I keep practicing that my dream of being a photographer will come true. - Maevy Taylor (August 2017)

Stories from Math -
Each week the class practices math facts by doing a 5 minute drill. If you get a certain % correct, then you get to be on Mr. Todd's Wall of Fame. After the 1st drill - Mr. Todd announced the names that got all 50 questions correct. But then later - you got your test back and noticed that you got all 50 right as well. You spoke up and let Mr. Todd know - he apologized for missing it earlier. :)

Last week in math - you were going over some division and Mr. Todd kept asking questions and you kept raising your hand to answer. Then finally - Mr. Todd said - "Does anyone besides Maevy know any of these answers?"

Keep up the great work. Love you!

Labor Day Weekend Re-cap

It was surprise Saturday - and we headed to Kentucky Kingdom for 2 days!

It was super fun- but no amount of convincing or bribing could get you to ride a roller coaster with me. Maybe next year... I think your favorite ride was a mini-kid roller coaster and the Tin Lizzies.

Back in Nashville on Labor Day - we visited the WW2II Landing Ship LST-325.
