Welcome to Mrs. Knight’s Third Grade Weblog! Here, you’ll find important news, online learning games, and assignment information.
Welcome Back!
I hope all of you had a great summer and are ready for a fresh start. As you know, third grade has moved to the intermediate school and we’re ready for another great school year to begin. It will be a new environment for our third graders as they graduate from the elementary school to a different building full of “big kids”, but that’s part of the adventure. Third graders will have the chance to make new friends, learn new things, and go to new places! I look forward to working with all of my new students, and will do my best to give every kid the opportunity to be a successful learner!
