3rd Quarter

At Dunham, 3rd Grade is all about Little House on the Prairie, The Oregon Trail and all things "Old Timey" as Emerson likes to call it.  The kids just concluded the Little House unit with Prairie Day. The entire grade dressed up and spent the day dancing, eating and playing "Prairie" games off campus.  They made butter, sun catchers, played jacks and marbles, jumped rope and had sunflower seed spitting contests.  All week the kids taste tested Laura Ingalls Wilder recipes.   And the most exciting of all... the dancing...with a boy...

 

 Emerson's partner was Julian.  It was a pretty fun day for them.  I am pretty glad all this Prairie business is over.

3rd Q grades and conference are this week.  Emerson is doing great and working especially hard to keep her good grades. All A's and a B.  We are very proud of her!!
