Third Graders are studying the United States Government. We are learning about the three branches of government: Executive, Legislative, and Judicial. Each branch has very specific and important jobs to do.
Each student in the class made a "Partner Clock." We will be using our Partner Clocks to easily find partners for the remainder of the school year. This week, they students got together with their 3 o' clock partners to read journal entries. Another day, they met with their 6 o' clock partners to play a fun, new math game.
All week, students have been presenting their skeleton mystery book reports that were due on Monday. I am so impressed with the work that everyone did! The book reports were fun to listen to and add a nice Halloween touch to our classroom and hallway!
Nicholas was the Star of the Week. Check out his survey question and acrostic poem below!
Allyson planned our Virtual Field Trip this week. She took us on a trip to Texas where we explored the desert and enjoyed the beach!

When I used to teach about the three branches of government, I would say it was like a three legged stool. Can you picture being able to sit on a three legged stool that had one broken leg? We have to rely on each branch of our government to do its job.
I love the partner clocks and the skeletons.
What a cool classroom you have! I enjoy getting glimpses of it since I can't just walk down the hall to visit Mrs. Peterson.
