Happy Halloween!

Halloween

Tomorrow is Halloween, my class's Halloween party and our Halloween  parade. I am excited  for the Halloween party the most because I want to see everyone's great costume and  I want to see if we are going to have any games. I love to play games. I also love Halloween because I love to eat lots of candy.

Weather

In science we learning about weather.  Some of the tools are the barometer, the rain gauge, the thermometer, and the wind vane.  We also learned about the climate.  The climate is what the weather is like for a long time.  Different places have different climates.  We took a quiz on Edmodo.com about the different climates around the world.

Outstanding Weather Tools

In science we are learning about weather.  There are different types of weather tools.   One is a thermometer which measures temperature. A rain gauge which measures how much precipitation has fallen.  A wind vane shows the wind direction.  A hygrometer measures the humidity in the air.  A barometer measures the air pressure, and an anemometer measures the wind speed.

My Rotten Redheaded Older Brother!

In school we are reading, My Rotten Redheaded Older Brother by  Patricia Polacco. Is is about Trisha and her older brother Richard. He brags that he does everything better than his little sister Trisha. The funny  part in the story is that Trisha wants to have a contest of who could eat the most rhubarb. She said that because she didn't think he liked rhubarb, but instead he said he LOVED rhubarb. I think My Rotten Redheaded Older Brother is a very good book!

Two Bad Ants

In Two Bad  Ants we learned about point of view.  In an ant's point of view grass was a forest.  We had to use our 3 subject notebook and write what the ants thought it was and  what it actually was. What I thought about the book was  it was a good book because it was funny that the ants thought that sugar was crystals.

Musical Math

Yesterday I was the leader of musical math. I like being the leader, but not so much. We all  take turns being the leaders.  Some of us did crazy dances. Some people thought it was too hard to copy what the person in front  was doing. About four or five people got to be the leader.

Trooper Bambara

Today a police officer came to our school.  He showed us his police gear. My favorite was the police car.  It had lots of other gear like a computer, a spare weapon on the side of chair, lots of buttons, a siren and I don't think the car had anything else in it. BYE

Awesome police gear

Stephen, I told you you're not a robber.

Are we getting arrested?!

Trooper Bambara

Today we had Trooper Bambara at school.  He is a state trooper.  He is different from normal police because he covers the state of New Jersey.  He showed us everything he uses on a daily basis. For example, bullet proof vest; riot helmet; shotgun;. car gear; computer; security camera.  He told us a secret- if there is an orange light in the grill the security camera is on record. Those are some cool  things that happened this morning!

Don't  touch this stuff- only touch for emergencies

Lance looking his best

Cassandra you're not a robber!

Bear Run

Today we had the Bear Run.  We did the Bear Run to raise money for cancer. We ran around the back field of the school two times.    When we started the race, we jogged, but at the end we sprinted through the finish line.  We all did a great job of running and jogging.  As we ran we heard all our friends cheering us on!  We were SWEATING from running two laps and we had to strive to finish the race!  The Bear Run may be hard, but it was a lot of fun!

Mrs. Sullivan

Mrs.Sullivan is the best teacher in the world.  I think she is out of every 3rd grade teacher.  Every idea she comes up with is brilliant.  Every activity she comes up with for us is amazing. I think I'm lucky to have her.
