Happy Johnny Appleseed Day!

We had a fun-filled day celebrating Johnny Appleseed today! We learned about the "legend" of Johnny Appleseed (otherwise known as John Chapman), graphed and classified our apples, discussed what a "good deed" is, estimated the number of seeds in our apples, compared apples to gourds and pumpkins, drank some apple cider, and we even made our own pot for a hat, just like Johnny Appleseed. Ask your child about how much fun we had! :)

Reading Circle Form

For those of you that missed the "Reading Circle Book Report Log" sent home in your child's take-home folder last week, here is a link where you can print off the form as needed throughout the year. I also have copies in the classroom. Remember, 3rd graders must complete 16 book reports this year - 11 fiction and 5 nonfiction. I am collecting them as they come back in the "Homework" side of your child's take-home folder. Let me know if you have any questions! Read, read, read :)

Click here for our 3rd grade Reading Circle book report form.
