Miss Sumpter's Awesome Updates
3rd grade Class
Sorry!!!
I realize that I have not sent you all any updates in a while. Things were crazy with Spring Break approaching. I can not believe that we only have around seven weeks of school left. Time is quickly approaching and I am astonished by how grown up my babies are starting to look. I am going to have a hard time letting them go to fourth grade. PASS, our State Test starts again for Reading, Math, Science/ SC History on May 6. Just like the writing I want to make sure that the students are not nervous, but instead are ready to show what they know.
Reading
Writing
In Writing we have been working really hard on Persuasive Speeches. The students have learned how to come up with a thesis statement and support their opinion in a way that convinces other people to agree with them. The students are working on their seed idea and will be publishing their writing by next week. We will possibly have an Author Share after PASS Testing so stay tuned :-).
Math
I am working hard to get our Math units finished before PASS Testing. We finished Chapter 12, which was on Graphs and Analyzing Measurements. This week we will start Perimeter and Geometry. I am holding all of our math test until after PASS Testing. I am noticing that the students need to brush up on addition(two and three digit), subtraction, division, and multiplication facts. Please work on this at home. We will be doing some reviewing in class for overall math concepts we learned this year.
Science
SC History
The Civil War is over, this was a unit that was filled with a lot of discussion. Our next unit is on the Reconstruction Era.
