This Week in Third Grade

It's the most glorious time of the year... Baseball season! We are celebrating Monday by having a Cards Spirit Day!

Here's what's going on this week in third grade: 

Reading: This week we will focus on the  difference between main idea, summarizing, and theme. 

Writing: We finished our persuasive group speeches and they turned out fantastic! Once again the students blew me out of the water! This week we will go back and focus on writing responses to a variety of questions. 

Math: We have done a great job learning the basics of probability. We will take a small quiz on Wednesday and start a small unit on fractions later in the week.

Science: We will continue our unit on measurement this week. Specifically we will focus on the Metric system. 

Other: 

On Friday students were given a permission slip for our field trip to Suson Park, please make sure that it is signed and returned ASAP.
