In 3rd grade math, students are learning that whole numbers can also be expressed as fractions. For example, when the denominator is 3, fractions such as 3/3, 6/3, and 9/3 represent whole numbers because they are made up of complete groups of thirds. Students are using fraction circles to physically build these fractions and see that 3/3 equals one whole, 6/3 equals two wholes, and 9/3 equals three wholes. This hands-on modeling helps them understand that a fraction is not always “less than one,” but instead represents a number made up of equal parts.
In addition to using manipulatives, students are drawing visual models to show their thinking and writing equations to connect the visual to the numerical representation (for example, 6/3 = 2). Through this work, students are beginning to recognize important patterns: when the numerator is a multiple of the denominator, the fraction represents a whole number. They are also discovering that any whole number can be written as a fraction by placing that number over 1 (such as 4/1) or by creating equivalent fractions like 4 = 8/2 or 12/3. By focusing on these patterns and models, students are building a deeper understanding of how whole numbers and fractions are connected.

In Social Studies, our 3rd-grade students are diving into the exciting world of finances and entrepreneurship through three engaging activities:
Part 1: Personal Finances
Students are envisioning their future and thinking about their dreams—and the costs associated with achieving them. They will create a simple budget and participate in a real-life financial simulation, learning valuable lessons about money management.
Part 2: The Free Enterprise System
In small groups, students will become budding entrepreneurs by designing and selling a product. Classmates will act as consumers, and groups will reflect on their company’s expenses, profits, and pricing decisions, gaining insights into the free enterprise system.
Part 3: Entrepreneurs at Work
Students will research famous entrepreneurs and explore their contributions to society. Through collaborative research and presentations, they will share their findings, fostering appreciation for innovation and the spirit of entrepreneurship.
This hands-on learning experience is sure to inspire creativity, teamwork, and a deeper understanding of economics!

NEW Sign Ups for Blessings in a Backpack
NEW Sign Ups for Blessings in a Backpack
Several schools collect food for low-income students who might not otherwise have food over the weekends. The program is called Blessings in a Backpack. There is a link below that you and your student(s) can sign up for. The volunteers simply walk around to each item putting it in a bag. One location is Alex R. Kennedy Elementary which is close to Ascension.
