On Earth Day they talked about what they could do to help the environment, like planting trees, recycling, picking up liter, and planting flowers. For their spring field trip they went to Flanders Nature Center to learn about ponds and beavers.

The students are learning to tell time. They are also learning about money in math. In science they are learning about plants and seeds and pond life.
The students love to write in their home writing journals and share their writing with their classmates. They are looking forward to Head Oâ Meadow Spirit Day and their show on June 5!
Mrs Napolitano
By Christie Iorfino and
Katie Lago
Itâs amazing to think about all the fun things Mrs Napolitano and her third graders do! We spoke with her last week and learned all about some of the things sheâs been doing this year.
Mrs Napolitano teaches reading, writing, math, spelling, and she alternates science and social studies. Do you know that her class has done some fun projects and activities?
For example they planted plants during a science lesson. They have done a journal journey, which is when you mail a journal (the first page is about yourself) to someone in another state, they write in it and tell about their state and then sent it to someone in another state. Eventually the journal comes back to you, and you learn about different parts of the country. Theyâve also done a novel study. The field trips they go on are to White Memorial Park, they went to see Sarah Plain and Tall (which they read) and they will also be going to Lighthouse Point Park.
Now you know about Mrs Napolitano and her third grade class!
