September 3- Congratulations! You made it to our Grade 3 website! As explained in the Welcome to Grade 3 email, this is the place where I will be posting news and information about what's happening in grade 3. I do not post school wide news and reminders here, as it is just too difficult for me to keep on top of it. For school news, make sure to visit the SKC website or Facebook page.
To get the ball rolling, we will be engaging in some activities to get the students back in to the routines at school. We will review some concepts from Grade 2 during our math lessons and then begin with the 3N1 and 3N2 outcomes in math. To become familiar with these outcomes and see how you can help your child at home, please check out the math tab on this website.
I am going to combine the reading and writing to get us started in the first 2-3 weeks. We are going to explore the well loved authors Robert Munsch and Kevin Henkes during our reading time and use these stories to springboard into writing about our own personal experiences. This unit will also give us a chance to practice the expectations during reading and writing time and refamiliarize the students with writing conventions (letter formation, spelling, punctuation, complete sentences).
Our afternoons are mostly comprised of Fundations, Humanities, Gym/Music, Read Aloud of class novel and flex time.
Please check out the home tab on this website to learn more about homework expectations in grade 3. When homework gets started I will send out more information.
Reminders- Please make sure your child has a water bottle each day. We have 1 microwave in the class for heating lunches. Please note I do not have condiments or bowls/plates for the students and the kitchen also does not supply these.
That's it for now, but if you have any questions about what's happening in grade 3, please get in touch!-Tiffany
