Third grade had a wonderful field trip to the North Museum on Friday! We lucked out with the weather and made it back just before some rain fell. As we are nearing the end of the school year, we continue to work and show some awesome behavior!

Reading: In reading, we spent some time looking at different ecosystems from our science textbook. We were able to explore various text features and do some comparing and contrasting. This week we will be spending some time with Little House on the Prairie. As we read, students will be creating a comic to summarize each chapter. In addition, we will spend time getting ready for our writing sample this Friday.

Writing: All students have completed their full circle stories as well as an illustration to go along with them. We are working on one more short persuasive piece at the moment.

Math: In math, we have worked through geometry and studied lines, angles, polygons such as quadrilaterals, and 3-D shapes. Now, we are moving to decimals. Please encourage your child to continue practicing basic facts each night. We will be holding our ice cream social for fact mastery within the next few weeks!
