3rd Grade Road Trip News
February 11-15
Family Focus
As a family, talk about what this month means and choose someone that you feel has made great strides and should be honored during this special month. Have your child do some quick research on this person and find out some interesting facts about them and why have made such a big impression in our lives. You could have them look up a quote that the person has said and explain what the quote means. They can bring it or the facts to their teacher on a piece of paper to earn stars on our classroom star chart. As always, please take a selfie in some form or fashion and send it to their teacher showing that your family participated in this Family Focus.
*YouTube has many books or short videos that would be great for Black History Month with your supervision. I searched "Black History Month for kids." You can also find information about this month in the school-wide newsletter, where Mrs. Brown talks about BrainPop, which is a great resource.

SPELLING
Because of our short work and benchmark testing for two days, there will not be a spelling test this week.
This week in....
Math: I can use strategies to multiply a two-digit number by a one-digit number. I can solve one and two-step problems involving multiplication and division within 100 using different strategies.
Reading: I can make inferences about text and use textual evidence to support understanding. I can explain how various design techniques used in media influence the message.
English: I can recognize and use commas in a series and dates.
Social Studies: I can explain how supply and demand affect the price of goods and services. I can define, identify examples, and explain the impact of scarcity.
Science: I can observe, measure, record, and compare day-to-day weather changes in different locations at the same time that include air temperature, wind direction, and precipitation.
