Thank you to Oakland University @oaklandu and the Carr family for naming our classroom as the first ever recipient of the Cayla Rose Carr Memorial Fund. We are super appreciative of the books you awarded our class and the impact they will have on our learning in honor of Cayla.
We had an amazing time with our Trading Day event the past two days. Students got to build/create an item to trade with others in the class! We walked away with many amazing creations and ideas! #TroyUnion#CULTURE
Today, we played a math basketball review game to prepare for our upcoming test. It was great to hear the math talk and collaboration among the room! #TroyUnion#CULTURE
Writers started their "golden booklets" today to plan their persuasive speeches. Students collected and organized all they know to help create a strong persuasive argument. #TroyUnion#thirdgrade
