Happy New Year, 3rd Grade Families!
As we embark on the new year, we will continue working toward our academic goals together. Students are actively participating in small-group instruction in both reading and math to support their individual learning needs.
This month so many exciting things are happening in the classroom. In math, students will be sharpening their problem-solving skills by working on word problems and finding area by decomposing shapes into rectangles and creating composite figures to form rectangles. 🟦📐
In reading and writing, we will explore stories more deeply by focusing on character development, character perspective, and theme, helping students think critically about the texts they read and express their ideas in writing. 📚✍️
In social studies, we are taking a virtual journey to Japan, where students will begin learning about its culture, traditions, and geography. 🌏🇯🇵
Thank you, as always, for your unwavering support and partnership. Your involvement makes a meaningful difference in enhancing the learning experience for our students.
Best,
Third Grade Teachers
