Dear
Families,

 

 Happy October! The students have had
another great couple weeks learning procedures and expectations for grade 3. We
have been learning about increasing and decreasing patterns, writing a variety
of poems during writers workshop and working hard during Daily 5 to strengthen
our skills in reading, writing and spelling.

 

 What
we are learning:

 

 This
week we will be having our first writers celebration! The students have been
working hard writing poems and have chosen one to edit and share with friends
from Mrs. Benoit’s class! The students will be introduced to “The Daily 3”
during math where they will be learning concepts and games to help reinforce
concepts that have been taught during class specific to their needs. This will
include, “math by myself”,” math with someone” and “writing about math”. We
will also be starting our social sciences unit. In science we will begin by exploring
soils and investigating soil composition and during social studies we will
begin learning about New Brunswick!
