Rachel and her 3rd grade classmates had their very last prayer as 3rd graders. All of them did a fantastic job and they really are a class that gets along with each other well.
There's no big field trips taken in 3rd grade but they sure do alot of projects and presentations. They get super good at them by the end of the year! Rachel's last presentation was on Chris Evert, the tennis player. It was more of a book report presentation. All the information they gathered had to come from the one book and not from any other sources. She did a great job on the presentation and inspired a few kids to look into tennis as a sport! She was pretty proud of that!
Another exciting moment for Rachel was running for Student Council for the 2015/2016 school year and she won! As 3rd graders they all got to participate in student council throughout the year but in May they had to decide if they wanted to run for 4th grade representative or not. They elect two from each grade. Here is her poster with her "clever" slogan!
Next year's student council reps
End of year awards was another day Rachel was excited for. She knew she had achieved the Presidental Excellence award in PhyEd. She's gotten it every year! Something her older sisters haven't done! She also received an award for Academic All-star. This award is based off their standardized testing score. All students over 90% receive the award. She was looking forward to adding another perfect attendance award to her file but that darn flu bug that went thru our house in March sealed her fate. She only missed 1 day of school! That's pretty darn awesome if I do say so myself!
She did have an awesome year in 3rd grade! I think her teacher Mrs. Lynch had a special bond with all the 3rd graders. Rachel was sad to leave but knows she'll see Mrs. Lynch at students council meetings next year and in the hall ways!
