Welcome to 3rd Grade!
We are so excited to work with you this year!
The 3rd Grade Team
Hello! Welcome to our team page! We are so thrilled to get started with the 2017-2018 school year! Here you will find important grade level information such as weekly homework, individual teacher websites, links to the Home Access Center and much more.
Homework
- Read a variety of genres and for a variety of purposes. This should be enjoyable for students, and can be a social, family-bonding activity as well! Help your child find books, websites, or articles about topics that interest them, or something they wondered about earlier in the day. Students should be reading at least 20 minutes each night.
- Join one of Elsa England's extracurricular learning opportunities! Math Superstars, reading Bluebonnet books for library voting parties, Student Council and other clubs. Keep your eyes and ears open for these awesome opportunities that are always free and available for your child.
- Practice math skills on a website from our class page or another third grade teacher's page. Practicing with flashcards to learn basic math facts quickly is something all students can do, and will help them solve more complex math problems in class. This is something they should be doing daily until these facts are comfortable and fluent.
- Give your child responsibilities around the house (ex: set the table, feed the pets, lay out clothes for the next day, collect laundry and bring it to the laundry room, etc.). This is non-academic and may seem trivial, but students who have responsibilities at home are more likely to be responsible and independent at school!
