3rd Quarter Highlights

ELA:
We will be working on cursive. We will be working on informative paragraphs and adding descriptive words and adjectives to our paragraphs. 

For reading, we will be learning about a variety of nonfiction and fiction stories through read alouds, small group instruction, and our Harcourt Storytown series. Our focus skills will be making setting, locating information, and plot.

Math: 
The students will be assessed on daily math facts. Your child should be bringing home his/her envelope each night for you to see his/her progress. The students are also more than welcome to take home copies of fast facts to practice at home. X-Tra Math is a great website available for students to use at home. Please let me know if you need your child's log-in information.

In addition to math facts, the students will be learning addition/subtraction word problems, metric and standard measurement, and 3-digit addition and subtraction with regrouping.

Science and Social Studies are integrated into our studies through monthly lessons, experiments, STEAM lessons, and Scholastic News articles and activities.
