Pajama Day!

Pajama day was a huge success! We loved seeing everyone's pjs and stuffed animals. We're getting close to filling in the pom-pom jar again. Can't wait to see what it will be next time!


The Skin We Live In



In keeping up with how we are a community, the Scholars discussed the different shades of our skin and how they are only a covering. We read a lot of awesome feel-good books about skin!


This was our favorite book that we read. It described skin as cocoa, mocha, almond, snow, sand, plus many more! Can you find an awesome description for your skin color?
This book talked about how our skin is just a covering and that to really know a person you have to get to know the INSIDE. We agreed! In this book we learned that skin isn't dumb, mean, smart, right, or wrong. We found that skin just holds the "you" that's inside.


We made our own faces to represent all of the shades of skin in our room. We discussed that no matter what shade we are, we have to get to know the person for what is inside them!

Community of the Scholars

Here's our awesome community! The first week of school we made a crossword, puzzle, and houses to show that we're a community. We are so proud of ourselves for being a community. We think our teachers are cool! Check out our WONDERFUL pictures!


This is one way that we show our community. We depend on each other.




This is Henry and Zach making their puzzle pieces.



Here we are working together to make the puzzle.


This is us around our puzzle.


This is our community puzzle We are interdependent because we depend on each other.

These are our community glyphs. They show information about us.

Hello 302 Scholars, Families, and Friends! Welcome to our classroom blog. We will be posting videos, photos, links, and more to this site throughout the year! Be sure to check back regularly to keep up with what's going on inside the classroom. Also, please feel free to comment, we promise we'll reply! Take a look at these serious (and not so serious) scholars during the first week of school!


Look at those bright smiles!


We can already tell this is going to be SUCH a fun year! Can you figure out who has the floating leg up in the top row?



Meet the 3rd grade teachers: Ms. Gutierrez, Ms. Panzl, Miss Kochy, and Mrs. Moorman. Can you believe we all wore black and white on the first day of school? We didn't even plan it!
