HELP!!!!!!
- GLUE STICKS-10 per child please
- PAGE PROTECTORS- if each child could bring a 25 count box we would have enough for the year. Many children have brought a few in.
- PENCIL TOP ERASERS- I order these 250 or 300 at a time from oriental trading. A third grade class usually goes through 500 a year.
- THAT'S ALL FOR NOW :) Thanks so much!
Learning Ahead
Science: We are moving on to changing that states of matter!
Language Arts/Writing: We will be focusing on personal narrative writing. Students will write a narrative based on a time they were on a team. We have written our first paragraph!
Reading/Social Studies: We will be reading Roberto Clemente. We will be learning a new strategy called Stop, Think, and React. We will also learn about the 3 branches of government.
Math: This week will continue our first unit on place value and simple addition/subtraction strategies.
