Things to know about third grade:

• PLANNER: Your student will have a take-home binder that they will be expected to bring to and from school every day. They will be required to write the daily homework assignments, upcoming tests, and spelling words in their planner. This will also be where they keep study guides, homework, and graded work.

• COMMUNITY SERVICE HOURS: Students are required to complete 10 hours of community service this year. We will typically complete about 3 hours together as a class.

• HOMEWORK: Students will have homework Monday - Thursday. Any classwork that is missing or unfinished will be sent home on Friday and due on the following Monday.

• SPELLING TESTS: Spelling words will be sent out on Monday. Spelling tests will take place on Friday mornings.

Third grade is a fast-moving train! Please support your student on this fun ride by reading with them and practicing their multiplication facts nightly.
