September8

Week two has flown by! The students split up into their reading and math groups and were able to try out our new computer programs such as ST Math and Kid Biz. We are ready for our first FULL week of school!

Reading: In reading we focused on literary elements such as characters, setting, and plot. We read a short passage titled My Dog Ate My Homework and highlighted the important information. We also spent time logging onto Kid Biz to take a short placement quiz and complete the first article. This week we will begin using Reading Street to focus on comprehension skills.

Writing: I have met with all but one of the third grade classes. We have been looking through our writing toolbox folders and practicing brainstorming as well as free writes. I’ve been impressed with the imagination of this group and can’t wait to see what the year brings!

Math: In math we practiced subtraction with regrouping. The students have done a nice job and even tackled double regrouping! We will begin our unit on multiplication and division this week, but we will continue to to come back to addition and subtraction facts. We also spent some time on ST Math!

Odds & Ends:

Picture Day 10/9

As always if you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at any time!

Thanks,
