Hello Readers!  I, on behalf of the third grade, apologize for the absence of new posts over the past month.  February was an extremely busy month for us in the 3rd Grade.  We have been extremely busy working on our units on Charlotte's Web, Energy, Fullerton's History, The Sacraments and Division.  Posted are some poems the students created using Google Docs for the first time this past month.  The poems are based on the main characters in Charlotte's Web.

We also started a new project that we will be working on with the 4th Grade - "A Week in the Life..." Flat Classroom Project (AWL - FCP).  We will be connecting with other 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students from around the world to learn about a week in their lives as well as sharing about our lives.  We are extremely excited to start this project and will try to keep you informed of the things we learn along the way.

Below is the digital handshake we created for the AWL Flat Classroom Project.  A digital handshake is a creative way of digitally introducing yourself to someone or a group of people.  You can use a picture with a description, video, audio recording, slide show or anything else that is digital.  We hope you enjoy our video created on www.animoto.com.

Catholic Schools Week 2012

This past week ACS celebrated Catholic Schools Week. All week long the students, their families and the staff participated in activities that celebrated this year's theme: faith, academics and service. Check out summaries and pictures of the 3rd Grade celebrating throughout the week!

Catholic Schools Week 2012

We kicked off the week by celebrating our Catholic faith on Sunday at the All School Liturgy at St. Philip Benizi! Many students and families joined the rest of the Parish in celebrating Christ's teachings.

On Monday, the 3rd Grade joined in celebrating school spirit! The entire school wore the colors of the rainbow. The 3rd grade's color was blue.

On Tuesday, the 3rd Grade, along with their 8th grade buddies, celebrated service! We traveled to Terrace View Nursing Home in Fullerton to spend time and minister to the residents. We had an amazing time playing bingo and other games, reading, coloring, and painting the nails of some residents. Many students can't wait to return to spend more time with the residents.

On Wednesday, ACS students celebrated their teachers. Throughout the day, there were special events, like a delicious breakfast, for the teachers!

On Thursday, ACS celebrated the students. Throughout the day there were special activities in and outside of class! The students got a special treat at lunch of Dippin' Dots and an extended recess! Many 3rd graders wished everyday could be like Student Day!

On Friday, ACS students, their families and staff came together to celebrate families with an old fashioned picnic on the main lawn. Everyone had such a fabulous time spending time together while eating their picnic lunches.

Christmas Break

Dear Readers,

I am writing about Christmas Break. It took about 4-6 hours to get to Las Vegas. The hotel I stayed in was Circus Circus. I got to go to Midway. In Midway, I went jumping to get to make a stuff animals with new clothes. I got to run to the buffet. I ate pancakes with honey and drank a hot chocolate for breakfast. Then for lunch I ate a big burger with cheese and drank a sprite. Lastly, I slept in the room watching TV. I had a fun Christmas in Las Vegas.

Sincerely,

Danna

Rejoice! The Messiah has come!

The Messiah is here. Jesus is the Messiah. The Lord was born in a stable in Bethlehem. He was born a little over 2,000 years ago. God gave Mary a son named Jesus and Mary and Joseph raised him.

My first day of school was very good because I saw my best friend, Mia. I like getting a new  teacher named Mrs. Hickle. I got to play with Mia and Jazmine.  We played cowgirls. I felt really happy that day. I got to go home at 12;15. I did spelling and math. I got to read a book,and practice cursive writing.
