Loving those new A.R. books!

I think the kids are really liking the chapter books in our library here.  It's a joy to see them interested and asking me "Can we read our A. R. book next, Mrs. Bryan"? 

Our New Class!

We have the greatest class this year!  The first week was spent organizing supplies, giving

out books, checking out the class library and reviewing addition facts and classroom

rules and procedures. 

How did I get so blessed with such a great class?  They're just what

I ordered!  Thank you, parents and students, for making

my first week back to work a total success.  I'm

blessed beyond measure with the job of teaching

your children. Here's to a great, successful, and blessed third grade year!!

                                                                                     

New School Year!

Well, it's great to be in the saddle again!  I've got a super group of new third graders I'm already in love with and can't wait to see every day.  My room got a new paint job making it brighter and sunnier.  The curtains are down getting cleaned and I'll re-hang them this weekend (they look horrible in this picture).   
                                            Here's my before picture...

                                              Here's our after picture (minus the curtains)

The baskets hold  our A.R. reading books I've collected.  They're

all labeled according to their reading level.
