The Happenings in the Learning Cafe...

Wow! Three weeks has just flown by and here we are in the middle of September! Fall is definitely upon us in Wyoming. We are just about done with swimming and I can't wait for us to start a "normal" routine on Tuesday. Our class is just about finished with the first chapter in our new math series, Math In Focus. The Daily 5 and CAFE are up and running. We are getting ready to introduce Read to Someone. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

Welcome to Mrs. Gilson's 3rd Grade!

Welcome to a new school year! I am so excited to have you in my class! I hope you have had a great summer of playing, and of course a little reading too! I have been enjoying playing with my two boys. I did find time to read some great books this summer and I can’t wait to share a few of them with you!


We will have open house on August 27th from 5:30-6:30. Bring in all of your supplies and you can put them in your cubby and find your spot. This is a great time to get to know your classroom and where you will be learning for the next 9 months!

As you know, I love to read and I can’t wait to share my love of reading with you! So, to start the year off I would like you to fill out the sheet that is enclosed with this letter. I would like you to tell me about one book that you have read this summer and you really loved it OR you could tell me about a book that has always been your favorite! Bring in the sheet to OPEN HOUSE and I will have a little something for you! (Below you will find a link to the summer book recommendation form)

I hope you have a great rest of your summer and I can’t wait to see you soon!

Take care!

Your Teacher,
Mrs. Gilson
