I know we are nearing the end of school, and the kids are getting anxious for summer. However, we still have a lot to get done. I have gone over rules and expectations for this time of year. Please discuss with your child how important it is to stay focused and SHINE in and outside of class.
Next week we will have 2 ELA summatives. The following 2 weeks (April 22-May 1) the 3rd grade team will have an ELA “boot camp” during our reading block to prepare for F.A.S.T testing. Students will rotate between classrooms focusing on specific core standards covered on the test. Please do you best to make sure your child is present and prepared to learn!
Swim field trip forms went home this week. Our amazing PTAO sponsored this event so it is FREE! Please make sure you turn it in by April 29th. * If your child plans not to attend, let me know so I can make arrangements for them while we are gone. *
Our class novel is “Because of Winn Dixie” by Kate DiCamillo. Let me know if you would like an alternate assignment for your child!
Academics:
ELA: fables, final stable syllables
Math: metric units, elapsed time, unit 13 formative
