Our new curriculum of CKLA has been exciting to go through this year. Finding a curriculum that supports all the facets of ELA (reading, writing, grammar, and spelling) is a tall order. We have found lots of good things within the curriculum and will continue to work to strengthen all of the core ELA skills in our students. If you click on the ELA Info button you will have access to our learning targets and what skills students are working on.
Students will be using Math Expressions throughout the school year. Students will start the year with Unit 3 working on Multi-Digit Addition and Subtraction. Then we will transition into Multiplication, a major concept in third grade. Students will have a math fact fluency goal of 30 addition and subtraction in 2:30 minutes. I will work with students to accomplish this goal throughout the first trimester.
New information and resources relating to the math expression curriculum and current unit we are working on will be linked here and in Google Classroom. In order to access the link you will need to click on the math picture to the left.
I am super excited for an awesome school year, and if you have any questions or concerns feel free to email me.
