Reading/Language Arts

The assessments for week 8 were completed this past Monday. I also finished reading aloud the book 

Charlotte's Web to the class on Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday was spent watching the movie to compare and contrast.

Lesson 9 will start on Thursday, November 14th.

Science

The next chapter in science will focus on life science. Students will learn about different habitats of living things.

Math

The third grade students continue to work on division. The divisors of zero through ten have been covered. Students have also worked on identifying if quotients are even or odd. 

We are now at the point in math instruction all of the factors in multiplication and divisors in division have been covered. We will still continue to practice both operations, but it is also each student's responsibility to continue practicing these facts. Five minutes before bed each night or when driving to school in the morning can be times when extra practice can be done.

Read-A-Thon

Information is coming home about the PTO's fall fundraiser. Read-a-Thon will run from Monday, October 18th-December 1st. You can record your minutes for Read-a-Thon on your reading incentive calendar as well. Please check out the note coming home in the take home folder about the fun activities and rewards.
