We celebrated #InternationalDotDay today! We learned about making our positive mark on the world and thanking others for making their mark. Each kid created a dot that represents what makes them unique - then watched it come to life! Thank you, Elizabeth Husketh, NBCT! QuiverVision

We loved visiting the Book Fair today! Thank you for all your hard work Elizabeth Husketh, NBCT ❤️📚

These two friends enjoyed a game of Wordo together during Friday’s Power Goal conference! They’ve been working hard to recognize patterns in power words and read texts that are full of their newly mastered words. American Reading

We had so much fun visiting Morehead Planetarium back in November! We got to see a Magic Tree House show, learn about the solar system, and explore their interactive exhibits. Morehead Planetarium and Science Center

We loved having a guest reader for Club Boulevard’s Black History Read-In! Thanks for organizing, Elizabeth Husketh, NBCT! Ms. Clark read “Put Your Shoes On & Get Ready!” by Reverend Raphael Warnock

3rd grade Durham Civil Rights exhibit was a hit with parents!

Some pictures from our week! Our class researched Durham change makers and change-making events for our Durham Civil Rights Exhibit. We were also visited by some students from the Black History Living Museum. Love seeing all of their learning and sharing! Club Boulevard

It’s been quiet on here because this cutie joined our family back in March! @MrWLamb and I are still smitten - she’s the perfect addition to our family. School starts on Monday, my classroom is set for Open House, and I can’t wait to meet a brand new group of friends!

Open House was so sweet! One of my favorite ways to welcome kids is by giving them the option of which desk to take on Monday. I love that they have their first sense of ownership in the classroom, and that they feel a little more confident on Monday morning.

First day of school! Sweet girl’s first day was two weeks ago, but she’s crushing it and loving it ❤️

Today our readers checked their reading stamina for the first time in 3rd grade. They read, without distractions, for 10 minutes and 17 seconds! And they’re ready to beat that time tomorrow.

We 🩵 last week’s Book Fair! And we 🩵 Elizabeth Husketh, NBCT and her intentional ways to help students let their grown ups know which books they’d like. Literati

Our class enjoyed a lesson with Marvelous Mrs. Brown today! We practiced the difference between tattling and reporting. Students gave great examples and worked together to sort through scenarios with a partner. Club Boulevard

Yesterday was a beautiful day for 3rd Grade Friendsgiving! We gathered around one table and ate some yummy food during lunch time. We were so grateful for the grownups who spent some time in their day serving our students and helping to make this special meal happen!
