Thank you for taking the time to read our third grade blog. Make sure you are checking it weekly for calendar updates, what we are learning, a glimpse at our week in pictures!
What are we learning?
Math
In math, learners will continue to build on their understanding of place value as they invent strategies, use standard algorithm and/or use mental math and the properties of operations to construct methods for adding and subtracting multi-digit numbers. Learners will begin to relate these strategies to addition and subtraction word problems.
Homefun: Reflex math will hopefully begin in October. We are still waiting for all learners to be finalized in the system by the technology department. Be on the lookout for a paper coming home with login information and directions on creating a parent account!
Language Arts
In reading, learners will participate in a Junior Great Books The Man Whose Trade was Tricks to reinforce generating questions, and using higher level thinking skills during the discussion of the story. In writing, learners will continue working on drafts of their choice using the writing process, and will finish conferencing with writing goal setting with their teachers. The next spelling test will be on Friday, October 13th.
Homefun: Practice spelling words; Spelling Test on Friday, October 13th. Continue to work on the 30 Book Challenge.
