And we are off running! Wow! It's only Tuesday and we are B.U.S.Y. I have handed out some term projects and assignments this week, so please look closely at the important dates at the bottom.
We have started regrouping with three digits in math and students would benefit from extra practice with this. It is our goal to start multiplication before spring break in March. We are studying the Apostle's Creed in Religion and students are expected to memorize the words. We will have a quiz on the words in February (exact date to be announced). In language arts, we are working on paragraph writing. At this time, grade threes are expected to use capitals and punctuation marks EVERY single time. This is non-negotiable. In Socials studies, we are doing mapping skills and will be learning about continents and oceans. This ties nicely with Science, where we are going to be learning about landforms and doing an in-school project with the Chromebooks regarding this topic.
