A Sneak Peek of Our Week ...

* Students will take the final session of the reading ISAT on Monday (20 multiple choice) and the final mathematics session on Tuesday (2 extended responses).  Any make-ups will happen Wednesday-Friday.  

Writing: Students will write blog posts this week focused on our class read-aloud and poetry.  Be on the lookout for an update to your child's blog! - http://kidblog.org/210ThirdGraders2013/

Reading:  This week we will begin a mini unit  on reader's theater.  Information about the unit can be found on the Reader's Theater page of the third grade website.  

Math:  On Monday this week students will take the pre-assessment for Unit 7: Fractions & Their Uses; Chance & Probability.  The family letter, IXL checklist, and other games and resources can be found on the third grade website as well.  

Social Studies:  Last week students investigated how Chicago meets the needs of its citizens, and this week students will learn about how Chicago's government is organized and will describe the role of Chicago's mayor, city council, and other local officials.  

Quarter Project: To finish up their quarter 3 project, students will spend time in the computer lab putting their rough drafts into a PowerPoint, and then creating a digital story with them.
