Class Reading Challenge
I am so excited about our class reading
challenge. The class is already half way to their first 100 books read. I know
they will continue this momentum as they are excited each day to find a new
book and start exploring it. The students are so engaged when we conference
about the books they have and are able to give insightful comments about their
reading.
Multiplication Facts
Students should practice their
multiplication facts at home in order to build fact fluency. This fact fluency
makes solving more complex multiplication equations easier for students. The
first multiplication test will be Friday, Sept. 21, X2 facts.
Current Events
In
the past, third grade students have been required to complete one current event
a quarter. This year in our class we are going to try something new that will
engage the class in discussions about current events. Beginning in October I
will introduce our Current Event
board to the students as well as the expectations for this activity.
Language Arts

Purpose and Character Traits. We have used several mentor texts to practice
these skills. Students will work in small groups to make Book Posters, Students
will choose a picture book to display these skills on their book Poster.

Multiplication and grouping factors.

learned about in class.
