Math: We have begun our next chapter which deals with multiplication facts that have factors of 10, 100 and 1,000. DO NOT forget to practice multiplication facts every night!
Reading: We are working with our basal text, "Leah's Pony." We will be discussing vocabulary that goes along with the story, as well as a comprehension skill . We will test on Friday, April 15.
Science: We are beginning our new Science unit that deals with "Life Cycles." Stay tuned for the latest creature editions to our classroom!
Social Studies: We are not working on Social Studies at this point.
Guided Reading: We are working with Guided Reading each day, and our kids are working with their individual target skills.
Spelling: We are working on Unit 29 which deals with contractions. We will have homework on Monday and Tuesday and test on Friday.
Writing: The expectation in third grade, especially this late in the year is to make sure that we are writing complete sentences with capital letters and punctuation. Also, it is important to address the Six Traits of Writing whenever we are writing. Please take note! At the present time, we are writing fractured tales by creating our own version of the "Wizard of Oz" in book form. Stay tuned for when these awesome books are coming home!
