Christmas in Our Classroom

Our Bible bulletin board, “Ornaments of a Godly Life.” Each day we added an ornament such as faith, patience, honesty, etc..

 

Hallway bulletin board. The students made the chains. They also added links to a chain inside the classroom for each R.A.C.K. (Random Act of Christmas Kindness) they did for someone. By the Christmas party, it was quite long!

 

Our rule board.

 

 

 

Our work board. . . soon to be filled with papers of my fantastic students!

 

Back board.

 

 

 

Our little classroom Christmas tree. Each student made an ornament out of a 3-D net.

 

The most important part of the decorations was our classroom nativity scene. The kids enjoyed rearranging this when they had a chance.

Charlie the Capital Catching Seal

I’d like to introduce you to Charlie the seal. He arrived on the scene earlier this week as third grade began to learn all about capital letters.You see, he catches capitals, just like all studious third-graders should. So far, he has helped to teach them all about capitalizing the 1st word in every sentence, the word I, days of the week, and months of the year.

Last night, he somehow managed to get a hold of the third grade language papers. ;-) He painted beautiful green circles all over the correct capital letters. Unfortunately, he also found a couple of incorrect capital letters and blotted those out with black circles.

The third graders were quite excited to see that Charlie checked their capitals!

Reading Corner

One of the new additions to our classroom this year are our reading mats. Thanks to the generosity of one of Mrs. Morford’s brothers, in the back of the room are carpet squares for the students to use as they are reading when their work is done. The students love this area, and it really has seemed to encourage reading!
