Welcome to Ms. Risse's third grade class! We are off to a great start! We are currently engaged in an author study of Patricia Pollaco. We are enjoying the vivid language she uses, and we're finding lots of alternative words for "said"! Ask your child about our "Said is Dead" project. Our Galimoto projects were due on Monday. So far, Melissa made a merry-go- round, Eric created an airplane, Alex built a swing set, Joseph constructed a Mustang convertible, and Andrew produced a camper! Stay tuned for more updates on our Galimoto creations!
