Miss Brancheau's Third Grade News
January
What's happening?
English Language Arts
ELAGSE3RL6: The students are working toward distinguishing their point of view from that of the author or the characters.
Social Studies
SS3H2: The students are working toward being able to discuss the life of FDR and Eleanor and how they expanded our rights and independence.
Writing
The students will continue to work on the RACE (restate, answer, cite, explain) strategy throughout instruction. In addition, students will begin developing narrative responses based on a passage.
What's the deal with i-ready?
This past week students were introduced to a program known as iready. This program monitors student progress and generates lessons according to their needs. In addition, I will periodically assign "extra lessons" based on content introduced in class. I am encouraging students to complete lessons at home. If you child completes at least one hour of i-ready, then they will receive a reward on January 22nd.
