A Sneak Peek At Our Week ...

Reading & Writing: Skills taught in reading and writing will be blended into our literacy block this week.  On Monday students will practice comparing themes of two stories and then will write a response about theme.  For the remaining part of the week, students will practice comparing and contrasting texts and writing about the comparisons.  

Math:  Unit 6 will begin this week!  Lessons 6.1-6.4, which all focus on division will be instructed.  Unit 6 information including the Family Letter, IXL checklist, and extra games can be found on the Unit 6 page of the Third Grade Website.

Science:  Now that students have learned about the three different types of rock, they will begin comparing and contrasting each type of rock and will explore connections amongst the three types of rocks when they learn about the rock cycle.  The following website - Interactive Rock Cycle - is a great way for students to visualize and comprehend the rock cycle.  The test for this unit will be on Thursday.  

Important Information:

  • 2/11 - SN Family Game Night
  • 2/12 - NO SCHOOL
  • 2/14 - Rocks & Minerals test
