This week in third grade:

We started the week off by opening up our pen-pal letters from Australia.  

On Thursday four of our classmates battled in our school Battle of the Books competition and did an amazing job! They have been reading books and practicing since the beginning of the school year.

We ended the week by listening to Colin O'Brady speak to us and help us to realize that we are able to accomplish any goal we set our minds to.

Colin became the fastest person to complete the 7/2 mountaineering challenge, also breaking the speed record for the Seven Summits in 132 days.  Colin is now a 2x world record holder!
