3rd Grade 9/11

Scholars, another week behind us; can you believe it? As we wrap up the book, be ready to present your knowledge of The Trumpet of the Swan in a formal, Socratic discussion held both in the classroom and online. We will be tackling new skills in grammar/writing and analyzing the Preamble this Freedom Week.  


This week we continue to explore addition and subtraction with number models, estimation, and word problems. Actually, instead of the term “word problems,” I like to use the term “math stories.” Wouldn’t you rather listen to a story, than a problem? It’s all about a positive outlook!



This week is Freedom Week. We will be briefly discussing the Declaration of Independence, some of the famous Abolitionists, the Emancipation Proclamation, and the US Constitution.   



This week we will continue to discuss traits. We will look at how traits vary within an organism. We will explore how an organism is affected physically and behaviorally by its environment.



For scholars that will be returning to brick and mortar, please don't forget to bring your school supplies on Thursday. Please bring back the canvas bag with materials, as well.
