Birthdays are a celebration in Third Grade! If your child's birthday falls during the school year we will celebrate on the day of his/her birthday or the closest day to it should it fall on a weekend. We will celebrate half birthdays the same way 6 months away from the actual birthday. On your child's birthday we will sing to him/her, have a "Silly String" celebration, and make a class birthday book to bring home. New school policies prohibit food items as birthday treats. Non food items are welcome, but not necessary. We have 24 students in our classroom this year.
