Upcoming This Week
- We will continue to focus on the 7 habits in the classroom! The more you can reinforce these habits at home and acknowledge when you see your child showing characteristics of these habits the better!
- Unit 1 math assessment on number sense, place value, rounding, graphing, addition and subtraction. Please visit my website for resources for students to do at home for extra practice under the students tab. I have also posted two pictures of the different addition and subtraction strategies we have been learning so you can better assist your child with these at home! Located under 3rd grade common core standards tab on my website.
- Language Arts: We will be starting Unit 3: Animal Adaptations. Click here for the Unit 3 parent letter.
- Innovation: We are starting a new 4 week block of engineering. Students will be learning about the different types of engineers and what they do. We will also be doing coding and STEM challenges!
