I hope everyone is enjoying this first weekend of Fall!
This coming week, we will still be following the "revised" specials schedule we followed last week.
3A's specials schedule will be:
Monday- Music
Tuesday- Spanish and Computers
Wednesday- Art
***Thursday- Library****
***Friday- Gym***
Please note that gym is on Friday, not Thursday as normally scheduled.
This week in Language Arts, we will be wrapping up Module 1, Week 2 and beginning Module 1, Week 3. This is always a favorite as our story, "Scaredy Squirrel," is certainly very fun and entertaining for the students. We will receive our spelling and vocabulary words early this week. In grammar, we will be working on using conjunctions to make compound sentences. Spelling and reading tests will be in the first week of October- this week, 3A will also be doing our MAP testing, so that will throw our schedule off a bit.
In math, we have started our unit on addition! We will practice addition of 3-digit numbers with and without regrouping. We will also use our rounding skills to round, and then add, 3-digit numbers. We will also apply what we know about addition as we solve word problems.
This week in religion, we will be working on our Good God Choices curriculum. Good God Choices reminds the children that we are all created and loved by God and He wants us to make good choices. We will talk about some good qualities that we have and how we can make good choices. We will learn about how important it is to try to be our "best self" every day!
In science, we will finish up our learning about life cycles. We will have an open-book quiz on Unit 2, Lessons 1 and 2 on Tuesday. Then, we will begin a fun PBL learning all about sharks, their habitats and life cycles!
A few reminders...
