Hello parents,
I hope that are all enjoying the lovely fall weather. I had a great week with your kids last week. They really are a sweet group! Please take a minute to look at what is coming up in 3rd grade...
Religion: We will be covering the 9th commandment this week, which talks about coveting.
Math: We are talking about money, especially making money exchanges which leads to adding and subtracting it. This is a great time to start having your kids pay attention in the checkout line at the store!
Reading: We are going to be combining our Reading and Social Studies for the next 2 weeks. The story Boomtown is a great tie in to the topic of "Change over time" in Social Studies. I began teaching the kids a new way to do vocabulary cards using the app "Pic Collage". This will be something that your kids do at least a little bit of most weeks. They will need time to work on an ipad to complete this, which I will give them plenty of in class. However, if your kiddos really want to do some of this at home I am attaching the directions sheet HERE.
Science: Our class is now studying life cycles by observing live crayfish. We have 10 little crayfish that the kids are working with for the next several weeks.

Tuesday 25th - Candy Corn Festival
