Saint Report Info.

Hello Families!
We had a great start this week in 3rd grade on our Saint Reports. We've ended the week with all students being able to find resources on their Saint through online resources or books. Now that we are about done with our first "brainstorming" sheet, I have given your children the second research sheet that helps them put their report in order. They should be able to use the information written on their first sheet to help them with their second. We will work in class to find any missing information and correct and errors in spelling and sentence structure. I have also sent home a paper that highlights the required information for the report, as well as a rubric that I use for grading. Our goal for this coming week is to finish and finalize the second sheet to prepare for writing the full report. We hope to complete the full report by the 3rd week of October so that we may utilize the week before All Saint's Day to practice. By now, I hope you and your children are beginning to think about how you might want to do your costume. Remember: Costumes do not have to be expensive or elaborate, just an appropriate depiction of the Saint's typical outfit. If you refer to the resource section, I will include some good websites for research and also some useful sites that show how some Saint costumes have been made. I will also include a few pictures of our students' costumes from years past. Thank you for all of your help with this project! We're having a lot of fun learning more about the Super Heroes of our faith! Good Luck!
