Progress Reports and Picture Day

1.    Can you believe we have already been in school for 4 weeks? Progress reports went home with students today. If your child has missing assignments, please check the binder or bookbag for "lost" work. It could be that it was turned in without a name. We ask students to write first and last name and date on every paper before they even begin working.
      Most all of the assignments that are on the Progress Report have already been sent home in the red Take Home Folder. There should be no big surprises.
      We have come a long way with organizing binders and folders. There is still work to do for most students. Now that all the reading assessments are over you might notice that we are expecting more thought and work from students. We believe that holding high expectations for school work and behavior will result in great results.

2. Remember that School Pictures are Monday. Please dress nice and bring your photo form. If it got lost in the bottom of the bookbag, you will have to come it to the office on Monday morning to get another one.

Testing and Homework

Dear Third Grade Parents,
The BOG (Beginning of Grade) test was today, and the students were good test takers. As soon as we get the results back, we will give you that report.
We also are conducting Read to Achieve testing with every student individually. This is a long process. Third grade is tested quite a bit in the great state of North Carolina.
Due to all the testing, classwork and homework may have been bumped. For example, I usually give homework on Mondays and Tuesdays, but due to the BOG, students did not have math homework on Monday or Tuesday or this week. They will have homework and classwork from now on because most of the testing is over.

Students did have a little Language Arts homework on Monday and Tuesday, but due to the BOG the spelling test has been bumped to next week. We do not want to rush into a spelling test just to check it off our list of assessments. We want the students to have time to process and practice spelling words within the context of literature. We are aiming for quality instruction, but with the quantity of state driven assessments, third grade classrooms across the state feel as if we are off to a slow start.

We are here for the students, and we have their best interest at heart.
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or any of the third grade teachers anytime.

Thank you for your support.

Great First Week News

Parent Meeting:
Thank you to all those who came to the Parent Meeting on Thursday. Please see the presentation in the right sidebar. We discussed our schedule, flexible grouping, EOG and mClass testing, Cougar Buck discipline system, technology class, peanut free snack, and all the ways to communicate with us. If you have any questions or suggestions, please let me know.

Dot Day:
The Enhancement Classes are celebrating Dot Day. (I had to google it to learn about it.) Art class on Monday will probably use paint so send in an old shirt to keep at school for messy art days. An adult long-sleeve buttoned-down shirt works best so student can slip it on backward easily. Mark it with your child's name, please.

Attraction Books:
The PTO's fundraiser, Attraction Books, is due this Monday and next Monday. These are the only two Mondays to send in your money, your orders, or your book.

Homework:
Math homework will start this week. Look to this blog for updates. You may want to click the Subscribe link in the sidebar to keep you updated when I post. I usually only post once or twice a week.

Subscriptions:
I have not had much money turned in for IXL, Scholastic, and Science Spin.  The total is $20 for all three. Make the check out to NCS. I really need this in by Friday of this week. The invoice is already here. Thank you.

Open House

Welcome Parents and Students to our Open House on Thursday, September 4th. You may either come between 3:00 and 5:00 or between 6:00 and 8:00. There is a meeting for parents in the gym at 6:00. If you would like to bring supplies to my classroom, you are welcome to do so. The students and I will sort them out on Monday morning. Some items go on the supply shelf to use as a community later, some go in their binder to use everyday.  Those are the personal school supply items that I will be labeling with their name. I already have the labels printed and ready to go on Monday. The only things that you need to label are your child's book bag and lunch box. You will also need to label his/her jacket when it gets colder.

The two great attributes of the third grade teachers at Neuse Charter are communication and organization. We update our blogs frequently, so go ahead and subscribe to each. If you send us a note or email we will respond within 24 hours. The third grade teachers are very organized, and we will teach our organization system to your child.

I look forward to meeting you this Thursday at Open House and next Thursday at the 3rd Grade Parent Meeting.

Parent Only Meeting

There will be a Parent-Only Meeting on Thursday, September 11th at 6:00. The third grade teachers will discuss schedule,  homework, curriculum, and general expectations. There will be a volunteer sign-up at the meeting.  We will either meet in the cafeteria or the library. Please make arrangements for child care. We will discuss everything with the students during the first week of school.

The school is providing an agenda/calendar so you do not have to purchase an agenda/calendar for your child. Please mark that off the supply list.  Mrs.Atkisson may need 2 additional spiral notebooks for Language Arts. She will tell you soon if she needs specific color notebooks.

I am looking forward to a great start on September 8th at 8:10am and an informative parent meeting on September 11th at 6:00pm.

Wednesday, July 23, 2014

Welcome to Third Grade!

My name is Mr. Kiser, and I am very excited to be one of your third grade teachers. Mrs. Cade, Mrs. Atkisson, and I have so many wonderful things to teach you this year. We are looking forward to a great start to this school year. Please go to www.neusecharterschool.org to find the supply list and first day. The school day is starting a little earlier than last year, so pay attention to the times on the school website. Elementary Open House is September 4th. The best way to prepare for third grade is to read everyday. I will see you soon. Enjoy the rest of your summer!

Sunday, June 8, 2014

Happy Summer!

We had a wonderful year in third grade!
Congratulations to all my students who expanded their minds and grew in height this past school year. You are amazing. Continue to do well next year, too.
All My Best to All of You,
Mr. Kiser

Cougar Buck Auction Items Needed

The Cougar Buck Silent Auction is set for the afternoons of June 2nd and June 3rd.
We need two things in order to make this Auction happen.
We need merchandise and volunteers.
During this week of Memorial Day sales, please remember our Auction and pick up a few items. We need all donated items by Friday of this week. I was just at CVS where I saw summer toys that I thought would be perfect for the Auction.
If you have some time to volunteer at the Auction starting at 1:00 on Monday and  Tuesday, that would be great. We will run the Auction from 1:00 until 2:30 both days.
During the Auction, the students will be divided into groups. Each group will get to have two turns to bid on items of their choice. Students may not bid more Cougar Bucks than they have. During the second bidding, the students will have the option to increase their bid if they have been outbid by another student.  At close of the Auction, students will pay for the items they won.
If there is anything left, we will sell the items in a Cougar Buck Store.

At this point we do not have enough items to have an Auction. Your donations are greatly appreciated. Also, your volunteer time is deeply appreciated. Please let Mr. Kiser know if you can help Monday, Tuesday, or both.  Thank you so much.

Comparing Fractions

Rules of Comparing Fractions:
1. For fractions with the same denominator... the greater numerator indicates the greater fraction.
      example: 3/5 > 2/5  because 3>2.
2. For fractions with the same numerator... the lesser denominator indicates the greater fraction. 
     example: 1/3 > 1/5  because 3 < 5. 
     Think of slices of pie. If your mom cuts a pie into 3 slices and gives you 1 slice, that is larger than 1 out of 5 slices.
