Math
Students are learning about analyzing and interpreting data. We have worked with tally tables and frequency tables.
Reading/Language Arts
The informational text read this week entitled "What Illustrators Do?" presented facts about the job of an illustrator. The comprehension skill covered text and graphic features. The vocabulary strategy focused on synonyms. The phonics skill covered three letter clusters (scr, str, str, and thr). Students worked on verb tense (present, past, and future) for the grammar skill.
The results of the lesson 6 weekly assessment have been included in the take home folder for parents to view. These are yours to keep.
Science
The third grade class continues to learn about animals in science. Students have learned about birds, fish, and amphibians.
Mass
Third, fourth, and fifth grades have the mass scheduled for Wednesday, October 25th. Because of the number of students involved, not all third graders will have an assigned part. Please check your child's take home folder to see if your child has a part in the liturgy. There is a coffee and doughnut reception following the mass for third, fourth, and fifth grade parents and special guests.
