iPad Resources/Updates/Charging
As we start to get into our day to day routines, we will begin using our iPads daily. Please help remind your child to charge their iPad's each night! This is extremely important as we have a VERY limited amount of chargers in the classroom, as well as, charging space.
Our Digital Learning Coach, Ms. Tinch, has also shared some parent iPad resources that you might find very helpful at home:

What we are learning
Math - It’s a vibe, y’all - a place value vibe! What an ingenious system: we can understand the value of a number just by looking at the location of the digits inside that number. Amazing! In third grade, we will learn place value to the hundred thousands place, and last week, we reviewed the 2nd grade skill of expanded form and applied it by practicing it with numbers up to the hundred thousands. Writing numbers in standard form sounds very fAHNcy, but really it means “hey pal, just write the number”). This week we will learn and practice the new 3rd grade skill of expanded notation, and we will begin placing numbers on a number line to get comfortable with rounding. Our number sense game - the basis of all math - is STROOOOONG.
Science - Always question, always wonder…Science is off and running! This week we will start exploring our Properties of Matter Unit. We will be asking What is matter, What are the properties of matter, and how can we classify matter.
ELAR - What do third grade readers and writers look like, act like and sound like?
📚This week in Reading, we will continue building our reading lives through practicing our reading routines and expectations in the classroom. We are practicing choosing “good fit” books, making connections as we read, and responding to reading.
📝This week in Writing, we will continue to brainstorm topics using our heart map and topics lists, practicing our writer’s workshop expectations and expanding on our ideas.
Ask your learner:
to show you the space they prepared at your house for reading. How does it help them to prepare for reading?
what they placed in their heart map during our writing workshop!
