We had a really wonderful week! Our class is representing the third grade in OBOB. Congratulations to the Book Worms for taking first place and to the #1 OBOB Team for taking second place in third grade! Both teams included students from our class. They have done an incredible job! Go Road Runners! REMINDER: Friday is Dress Like A Book Character Math: We finished our third unit on multiplication and division. Students took their assessment on Friday. I will be sending it home for you to see how they did. Please send their assessment back with them to school after viewing how they performed. We will be starting our next unit on fractions! How you can be supporting your child with math: 1. When you come across real life scenarios involving fractions, it would be great if you stopped to share with your child. For example, cooking is a great learning opportunity for your child to see how fractions exist outside the classroom. Literacy: We started our third unit! It focuses on character traits. Students have been reading their book paying close attention to how their character talks, feels, and acts. They are using that information to help determine traits about their character. How you can support with reading: Ask your child about the character in their book and what traits their character has and what in the story made them think that. We are focusing on using textual evidence to support their thinking. Writing: Students are publishing their expository writing pieces! They are turning out to be fantastic. They have worked very hard on these. Any writing pieces that are not completed by Friday will need to be finished at home. Students should work on their piece independently and turn it in as soon as they are finished. We will start our opinion unit next! Social Studies: Students started their final project for our "Sharing The Planet" unit. They are currently researching a region of the United States. They have used multiple resources to gather information on the resources, landforms, climate, and other interesting facts. They will use the information to create something that shows a representation of what they have learned. Some options include a slide show, poster, brochure, writing piece, etc. They have LOVED researching! Stay tuned for their final piece! Our class made posters for the hallway! They turned out so great! What a creative group of students. They made posters to encourage students to be kind, play fair, and to never give up! :)
