Weekly Report
Hi there everyone! This has been a busy week back. We will be entering our second round of testing in third grade very shortly. The next round is for ILEARN. We will be taking this test the week of 4/19. Please make sure your child has a fully charged iPad each day.
We are reading the book The Indian in the Cupboard. The kids are enjoying the book and the characters as well. Ask your child about it. This is a great way for them to summarize and talk about character traits.
Reading--Our story next week is called How Do You Raise a Raisin? It is a nonfiction test that has poetry. We will also view a media piece on carrots. We will focus on figurative language, media techniques, and text and graphic features. There will be a quiz on the main story and the media clip on Friday.
Math--We will have a short quiz on shapes on Tuesday. Then we will work on telling time to the hour, minute, and elapsed time.
Spelling--The words focus on the sounds ough and augh. The test will be on Friday.
Social Studies--We will finish up the Grizzly Bear issue. Science--We will begin another animal adventure mystery in Mystery Science.
English--We will review Unit 3 all week. There is a keynote to help review on Google Classroom. The 100 point test will be on Friday.
