This Month in Third Grade
I cannot believe how quickly this semester has gone by! I am in awe of how much our students have grown in our short time together. I am definitely not working with a group of third graders anymore! As we enter the last full month of school we will be busier than ever before. I have posted a month-long calendar in our class alongside our weekly calendar so that the students have a better idea of what is coming up. Please make sure to check your students' blue folder and book bag for important information and reminders about testing and special events happening in our community.
As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns,
Ms. Webster
This Week in Third Grade
Math- We return to fundamentals this week as we review the base 10 system and begin creating a toolbox of strategies for addition and subtraction. Our goal is for each student to find several strategies that work for them. Students will be practicing with numbers and word problems that challenge them individually, as well as prepare them for the EOG test.
English Language Arts- We will be expanding our vocabulary with a continued study of prefixes and suffixes, as well as beginning an in-depth study of "testing" words. We will continue practicing our reading comprehension skills through a variety of texts.
Science- We continue our exploration of our solar system with a variety of activities.
Social Studies- Student work is on display outside of our class. If you are in the building, I highly recommend you stop by and see the finished projects!
