I hope everyone is enjoying this burst of Fall weather!
This week in third grade, we will be working on Module 1, Week 2 in our Into Reading series. We will be reading about Judy Moody and her brother Stink, familiar characters to many of our third graders! We will be talking about examples of figurative language as we read these stories. Students received the M1W2 vocabulary and spelling words in class on Friday. We will be working with these words all week. Our spelling test on the spelling words will be on Friday with a vocabulary quiz to come the following week.
In math, we will continue to review place value of big numbers (up to the 100,000 place.) The children will have a place value quiz on Wednesday. We will be going over a study guide in class on Monday and the children will be bringing it home Monday evening. We will continue to review in class on Tuesday and Wednesday prior to the quiz. We will then do a little work with money and rounding to finish out the week!
In religion, we will be continuing to work on Chapter 2, which we began this past week. This chapter talks about all the different ways that Jesus teaches us. We will finish up the chapter on Monday and Tuesday, review on Wednesday, and have our Chapter 2 test on Thursday.
In science, we will be covering Chapter 2 Lesson 2, which deals with life cycles of different animals. We will talk about how all animals go through similar stages in their life cycles. Many of the children were excited on Friday to share stories of how they have experienced the life cycle of butterflies or frogs, the two examples our textbook gives!
