Mrs. Diglia's Weekly Newsletter 11.9.26
3rd Grade Weekly Update
What a fun way to end our week with a beautiful day to have Field Day! The kids had so much fun and we couldn't have asked for better weather.
Next week we will celebrate our Veterans with a program on Wednesday mornning. We are limited to just 100 seats, so please use the link in Mrs. Diglia's newsletter.
In Reading and Writing we are still working with Informational Text. We will begin examing the different structures of a story and understanding the author's purpose for choosing a particular structure. In writing we will do a mini-research project and write an informational text using our research information.
No spelling words this week, we will focus on handwriting and the correct use of capitalization.
In Social Studies we will talk briefly about nonprofit organizations and then begin our unit on America's First People.
Math we are now in our second unit. This unit is about addition, subtraction, and place value. Next week we are learning about addition and subtraction within 1,000 to 100,000 and the strategies we can use.
Science we are starting a new unit on forms of Energy.
Ms. Cole was moved by the theme, and would love to feature all submissions digitally on screen during Multicultural Night! Students will also be celebrated during our own Homestead Reflections Ceremony in March, as well as Arbor Creek's Open House to celebrate their feeder schools.
