It’s been great seeing the students back in school after break!  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!

What we’ve been working on:

Writing:

We are finishing up our informational books.  They have been very busy and are excited to share what they are experts on!

Reading:

Our Reading unit ties in with our writing in that we are reading informational texts.  We have been talking about finding the main idea and supporting details while reading.

Math:

We are adding three digit numbers using equations, word problems and getting information from charts.

Their Unit 2 tests were sent home last week.  They did well!  Thanks for reviewing and studying with them!

Keep practicing math facts.  Once they pass 1-10 multiplication facts, they can practice 11s and 12s for extra learning.  Only 1-10 needs to be mastered for 3rd grade.  After everyone has passed, we will take tests on mixed facts to keep their fluency high.

Classroom Supplies:

We could use Lysol wipes as we are almost out.  We could also use classroom snacks such as graham crackers and goldfish crackers.

Have a great rest of your week!
