Vocabulary Parade

Anderson had its 1st Vocabulary Parade on Friday. Each student and teacher were to dress as their favorite vocabulary word. We all paraded around the school. It was a lot of fun seeing what each word looked like.

Here are the 3rd grade teachers:
Ms. Cone- "hibernation", Ms. Theilen- "camouflage", Ms. Wanasek- "elderly", Ms. Percle- "flood", Ms. McCoy- "monocot", Ms. Zadina- "childhood"



I chose one of our science vocabulary words.

Rough Rider's

We had a great time on our Field Trip to the Rough Rider's Stadium. We learned some interesting things about the stadium while we were there!

"My favorite part was when we got to walk on the track to the dugout and we got to sit where the players sit! -says Michele. :)

"My favorite part was the dugout, because the players sit there!" -says Sam.

"I liked the bullpen because that's where the pitchers warm up!" -said Romo.

Did you know that Daisy and Deuce live under the pitchers mound? If you haven't ever been there, we highly recommend going.

Ha ha!

This is pretty funny, for all of you Diary of a Wimpy Kid fans out there!

Field Trip!

A mistake was made, and our Rough Rider's field trip has been changed to Monday May 10th.
The Rough Riders will actually be playing a game the original day that we were schedule and although that would be fun, we can't go on that day. So we did the next best thing and changed it to Monday. Even more good news, your child will be getting a refund of the $2, so we get to go for free!
Thank you for your understanding.
:)

TAKS Journey

We took a journey through all of the 3rd grade teachers classrooms to review all of the skills that will be tested on the TAKS test.
We had a great time!
Reading- Summarization, Main Idea, Inference, Characterization, Story Problem/Solution, and Context Clues.
Math- Problem Solving, Addition & Subtraction, Real World Math, Place Value, Patterns, Multiplication & Division.

We feel ready ROCK that test! Way to go 3rd grade!

Are you ready for some baseball?

We have a fun filled field trip scheduled to go see the Frisco Rough Riders' Stadium on May 11th. If you would like to chaperone, please be sure that you have your background information filled out by April 27th as it takes 2 weeks to run the check. We are so excited and would love to have as many parents there as possible! You can even meet us there. We hope to see you soon!

Frisco Fire Safety Town

Today we had our Field trip to FFST.
We had a blast. We learned about bicycle safety and how to be a safe pedestrian. We walked and rode bikes around the town.
After our tour of the fire house we went to Friendship Park and had lunch and an extended recess. Ms. Cone got a workout pushing little people on the tire swing. So fun!


From the mouths of 3rd graders:
"I won hand signal Simon Says", says Alex.
"What a day!", exclaimed Slick.
"Best time ever!", shouted Vince.
"Fire safety town is the best place to ride bikes! exclaimed KT.
"It was the best time of my life", squealed Jennet.




Thanks moms for coming and helping!
