November Class Notes:
I cannot believe that we are already in the second quarter!! Oh, how the time has flown by!! These next few weeks have a lot of fun activities in store and I am so excited to see all the students thrive.
Reading/Language Arts:
We will be starting to finish up Frindle within the next couple of weeks. My plan is to start the project where they will find an object and create a new word for it. In Grammar, once we are finished with sentences, we will be taking a look at different types of nouns. We will start by looking at nouns in general and then we will start to look at more specific nouns like common, proper, singular, plural, etc.
Math:
For the next few weeks, the students will be transitioning from addition to subtraction. We will be learning how to subtract up to 10,000. We will be working on mental subtraction, subtracting fluency, subtracting without regrouping, subtracting with regrouping, and real-world problems using subtraction.
Social Studies:
As we finish up the history of communities, we will start to take a look at People on the Move. The students will be learning about building new communities, moving to a new home, and cities that grow and change. We will also be learning about how we can use timelines as well as making them.
Science:
As we start to finish our journey to the Moon, we will travel to a whole new planet. We will take a look at different planets and different things that you can find in the solar system.
Religion:
Within the next few weeks, we should be finishing up on our All-Saint’s Day projects. The plan is to have the students present their projects on November 15th. After we complete the project, we will start Chapter 3: Learning About God. In this chapter, we will discuss knowing God, the Prophets, Jesus, and The Bible.
Handwriting:
We are starting to swoop into learning the basics for writing in cursive. The students will review how to write lower case letters in cursive.
I am looking forward to all of the fun activities that are coming for 3rd grade! If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at grade3@stpetersparish.com. I look forward to sending everyone all of the pictures of the fun activities we will be doing.
Thanks so much!
