We've sure been busy in third grade!
In math, we are currently working on Unit 7, "Understanding the relationship between multiplication and division patterns."

In writing, we will watch a short video and read health articles about how to have a positive attitude. Students will learn how to paraphrase and take notes, and will answer the following prompt: "How does attitude affect your actions and how can you improve your attitude? Include details from the video and articles to support your ideas."
In reading, students are learning to evaluate the effectiveness of nonfiction passages and books, determined by their text features (captions, photos, headings, table of contents, index, glossary, etc.).
February's Rockin' Readers will be sent home in this week's Wednesday folder. It's a school wide expectation that third graders read for at least 15-20 minutes each day. You can read to your child, your child can read to you or another family member, or he/she can read to self. Any reading counts and will provide a multitude of benefits for your child such as, increased vocabulary, comprehension, reading stamina, and a love for reading! Thank you for all you do to support your child!
