Science and Social Studies

Science – In third grade, we will rotate teachers to receive one of the following FOSS units: soils, rocks and landforms; energy and matter; living systems; and the skeletal system. By the end of the year, all students will have received all four units and worked with all four teachers.

Social Studies – We will use Social Studies Alive to learn about the different regions of the United States. Students will explore the history and geography of each region as well as population density and the different cultures that make up each region. We will also study personal financial literacy.

Biography - Third graders will be immersed in a biography unit of study with an emphasis directed towards historically significant figures who have positively influenced the world.
