What's Been Happening In Class?
- Writing: This week our focus was on "contractions" in spelling. We will have our spelling quiz next Friday. Then, we starting our Pen Pal letters to our new Pen Pals in England! We will be communicating through letters with another 3rd grade class in England. The kids are super excited to have a writing Pen Pal in another country.
- Reading: We are deep into our Nonfiction Unit in Reading. We spent the week learning a couple of new reading strategies - cause and effect using the book, A River Ran Wild. We also wrote our first cause and effect summary too. Lastly, we did some reading on our PBL project using Newsela.
- Math: We wrapped up our unit on fractions this week with a quiz. We will have a combined unit test before winter break on December 19th over fractions and division. Therefore, our next unit is division!
- Science: We are wrapping up our unit: Forces, Gravity, Magnetism and Simple Machines. We took our DCA test yesterday. Test scores are already in Home Access. Our next unit is Earth's Forces - Earthquakes, Volcanoes and Landslides. This DCA test will be on December 18th.
