September 18-September 22
Dear
Families,
I hope you had a wonderful weekend and are
ready for another busy week in grade 3!
The children are settling in nicely to the classroom and are learning
the procedures, expectations and routines that will guide us through the school
year. I am very proud of the effort they
have put forth so far!
What
we are learning:
This
week we will be continuing to learn about increasing patterns as well as
playing games to help reinforce our knowledge of math facts. On Wednesday the
students will begin flexible math groups where your child will be taught math
concepts based on their specific needs with other students at their level. In
literacy we are reviewing reading and spelling strategies to help us during
read to self, read to someone, word work and work on writing. During writer’s
workshop we focusing on poetry. We are using students writing as mentor texts
and writing our own free verse poems. We have been focusing on important people
in our lives as well as special places.
