Our units of study currently include:
- GEOMETRY--We are working on perimeter, area and 2 dimensional shapes. We will be moving into a new unit soon--multiplication and division. The emphasis in this unit is that students understand the concepts of multiplication and division while becoming familiar with facts.
- SCIENCE -- We are starting our Solar System unit. Did you know that there are 8 planets now?
- WRITING --We will be writing a report about a planet using the painted essay format--context,
focus, details, conclusion.
- READING --We are all reading independently. We continue to focus on
summarizing, visualizing, predicting, making connections, questioning, and
providing evidence from the text. We receive the
National Geographic magazine. Go to their website for great articles, pictures and activities I am really excited
about this change. Please keep reading the fluency papers sent home
each Monday. It is making a difference for those who are practicing.
- HOMEWORK--Please remember that 3rd graders have homework every night (Monday through Thursday) unless I send a note stating otherwise. Our schedule is usually literacy on Mondays and Wednesdays, math on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
