A Sneak Peek into Next Week

Literacy:  Next week, students will begin reading their literature circle novels and meeting for small group discussions.  If they do not finish the reading at school, they will be expected to finish it at home. During the writing block, we will work on our short story written from a bug's perspective.

Math:  We will continue to move through Unit 8 in our math curriculum.  Students will practice on www.freckle.com, and we will continue to practice word problems, as well.  You can expect the corresponding Home Links as homework. 

Science: During the science block, we'll begin learning about the food chain and the impact environmental changes and man-made changes have on different ecosystems.  Students will create a food web and participate in a population simulation. 

NWEA Testing: Third grade will take the final spring NWEA assessment on Wednesday, 5/23 and Thursday, 5/24

Progress Reports were sent home on Friday. Please sign the bottom portion and have your child return it on Monday.
