Third Grade

Some of My Favorite Stories

The Book of Mistakes

By Corinna Luyken

What happens when you make a mistake? Does it mean you should give up? What should you do? If you keep making mistakes, how might you feel? What are some ways to calm down or make yourself feel better?

The Invisible Boy

By Tracy Ludwig

What did you notice about the boy throughout the story? Did you notice anything about the way he looked? Why do you think that happened? What are some ways you can show kindness to others?

First Day Jitters

By Julie Danneberg

Have you ever had to start over at a new school? How did you feel? What about on your first day of school, even if it wasn't a new school?

What did you think about the ending of this story? Was it a surprise? Did you know everyone gets nervous on the first day, not just kids?

Curriculum

In our Third Grade Character Education classes, we will be using the Second Step curriculum. This curriculum teaches skills in four areas:

Skills for Learning
Empathy
Emotion Management
Problem Solving

We play games, listen to stories, watch music videos, complete worksheets, and sometimes we have Homelinks, which are short homework sheets meant to be completed with a grown up.

You can create a parent/guardian account by going to the website and using the activation key:

SSP3 FAMI LY73

If you created one for second grade last year, this one is a little different. You can have more than one grade level associated with your account if you have more than one student!
