Students are working together on their Unit 3 Math Review packet. I love seeing students teaching their friends how to do it! Good work 3rd graders! #RSRockets #lovemyriverside @RiversideSDMF

Students are working hard on their biography book reports. They are also doing some additional research on their famous person using the Chromebooks. Great work 3rd graders! #RSRockets #lovemyriverside @RiversideSDMF

In honor of "Movember" teachers dressed up as a famous person with a mustache. Students wanted to recreate the Mike Ditka photo. 😆#RSRockets #lovemyriverside @RiversideSDMF

Today, we learned how to do a ROCKET READ in class! I was able to be the very first one! Rocket Reads help promote books in our classroom to help students get excited about reading! More student Rocket Reads are coming!! #RSRockets #lovemyriverside ⁦@RiversideSDMF⁩

I love how this group comes in each morning and gets right down to work! By 8:55 every morning they are silently working hard at their desk. Love it!! #RSRockets #lovemyriverside ⁦@RiversideSDMF⁩

Today we went on a scavenger hunt with a friend and a tape measure to find classroom objects of specified lengths. #RSRockets #lovemyriverside ⁦@RiversideSDMF⁩

Students had a fun time playing the Math game "Make the Sum" with their partners. Great game to help with their basic addition facts! #RSRockets #lovemyriverside @RiversideSDMF

Students made a poster of "Math About Me." They had to discover all the ways number represent them and make it into a poster. The students learned a lot about themselves! #RSRockets #lovemyriverside @RiversideSDMF
