PROJECT CHOICES- Choose one project from each subject area to complete. Turn these in as you complete them. You can of course do more than one from each area if you like.
New School Year- Choose 1
1. Write a letter to your teacher. Introduce yourself and tell your teacher some things that might be helpful for them to know.
2. Write a letter to someone in the class who you did not know before this year began. Tell them about yourself and why you choose to write a letter to them. Give the letter to your teacher and they will deliver it for you.
3. With help from a parent or guardian, set some goals for the new school year. This might be about behavior, school subjects, grades, friends, or anything else. Try and come up with at least five goals. Write them out and turn them in to your teacher.
Reading/Writing- Choose 1
1. Ask an adult what their favorite chapter book was as a third grader. Read that book or have an adult read it to you. Write down on a sheet of paper what the book was and who suggested it.
2. Write a story involving the Wind in the Willows characters.
3. Read a “classic” third grade book. If you need help finding one, check out use Google to search for “Classic 3rd Grade books” to look for suggestions.
Math- Only one choice this month! Please complete!
1. Multiplication Boot Camp: Commit to practicing your multiplication facts for 30 minutes, 5 nights a week for the whole month of August. You can use flash cards, multiplication.com, or anything other way that works for you. This will give you a great jump start on the year!
Monday - Thursday: read for 20 minutes each day
practice math facts
The only time your student will have homework is if they do not finish their work in class. I believe they should work hard in class and then go home and enjoy their family and friends.
