What We Have Been Learning

Reading/Writing
During Reader's Workshop, students continued to enjoy reading and discussing Chocolate Literature books.
|

Science
Third grade students are excited to share what they learned about astronomy topics at the Academic Celebration Friday, March 17.
|
|
|
Math
This week students focused on making arrays for all the products from 1-36 and discovering multiples and patterns from 2-9.
|
|
Social Studies
Students got settled into the routine of doing classroom jobs to begin earning money to use as capital for their businesses.

Talking with your child is the best way to support classroom learning. The following questions can help you get started.
- How did being up on stage make you feel and why?
- How have you grown and changed this trimester? What are you most proud of?
- What are you most excited to share with people tomorrow at the celebration and why?
- What was your first experience with the Seniors like?
|
|
- Thank you for supporting your child with reading daily and signing their planner!
- Start playing games or use apps to practice multiplications facts through the 5's.
