Curriculum

mathmatics

Third graders will build on their knowledge of fractions, multiplication, division, representing and interpreting data, geometry (identifying attributes of 2D shapes), area and perimeter, adding and subtracting, and solve time, capacity, and mass problems.

Reading

Students will enhance their reading and writing skills by expanding their vocabulary, comprehension, and learning a variety of reading skills. They will learn different types of writing and improve on their communication skills.

Writing

Last week, students completed a pre-assessment based on a reading about ants. This week, we’re diving into the writing process using some helpful anagrams from the Think SRSD curriculum:

POWER (Plan, Organize, Write, Edit, Revise)
TIDE (Title, Information, Details, End)

We’ll read a passage about animals and their characteristics, then write a GIST statement (a short summary of the main idea).

Science/ Social Studies

In science, we will learn about patterns of motion, electric and magnetic forces, life cycles, animals social and group behavior, animal adaptations and survival, and weather and climate.

Third graders will learn about the difference between a primary and secondary source, geographic tools, identify characteristics of a local region, goods vs. services, scarcity, and will be able to make and sell goods, learn to respect the rights and views of others, and local government.
