Dear 3rd Grade Parents,
Please take a look at this week's highlights:
Vocabulary/Spelling: Definitions from dictionary for PSIA Words #61-80 due on Wednesday. Crossword puzzle format with dictation test on Friday.
Reading: We finished our chapter book Knights of the Round Table. We continue to discuss life in the Middle Ages. This week, we will learn about our family coat of arms. The kids have been "knighted" in class after we discussed the code of conduct and the influence of Middle Age chivalry in our society.
English: Grammar Jingles song activities to learn most commonly misused irregular verbs such as: sit/set, lay/lie, raise/rise, etc.
Math: We continue to review Geometry using worksheets, art activities, and ALEKS worksheets. Stay tuned for important developments regarding our Math program in the coming weeks.
Science: Students are introduced to hurricanes using our Discovery streaming website as a pre-lesson for this week's field trip to the Ft. Worth Museum of Science and History.
Social Studies: Using cross-curricular studies in Reading/Literature, we will continue compare and contrast Middle Age society vs. modern day society.
Religion: We are reading a wonderful children's book from the Scholastic Book Fair called Favorite Bible Stories and Amazing Facts published by the American Bible Society. This book contains full color graphics as well as trivia tidbits, fascinating facts, and 27 of the best-loved Bible stories so that students can experience its life-changing messages.
Notes/Reminder:
1. You will find the results of our middle of the year DIBELS assessment in the Tuesday folder. Please take some time to review your child's reading progress.
2. You will also find a permission slip for Friday's field trip to the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History. Please sign and return ASAP. If you would like to chaperone, please contact Shelly Griffin for cost and details.
Best regards,
Mrs. Pulido
