BEGINNING MONDAY, AUGUST 25, WE WILL BE USING ROOMS IN THE THRILLSHARE APP TO COMMUNICATE WITH YOU!
Most likely you already have an account set up from last year. Please continue to use the same account. Be sure to allow notifications, so you can read our messages and announcements as soon as we send them. When you want to send the teachers a message, please do so through the app.
How to Use Rooms (for parents)
Please remind children to take good care of computers; carry with two hands, keep away from food, drinks, and little brothers or sisters. Each night we ask that you have a special place to charge the chromebooks and double check that they make it in your child's backpack in the morning. We will talk to the students about how it is their responsibility, but please help them for the first couple weeks.
***Please send in wired earbuds or headphones that plug into your child's chromebook. Label them with your child's name if possible.

Hands on with Matter!
Our third graders had a great time during science this week as we explored measuring matter! Students used tools like scales, magnet wands, and thermometer to practice measuring and testing matter. They enjoyed being hands-on scientists and discovering how we can describe and compare different kinds of matter.
