School Day 9:40 am - 4:10pm
Our reading series is called Good Habits, Great Readers. We will be continuing to work with leveled readers (just right for you books) for our independent reading and guided reading groups. This year all the children will be using a reading "pocket" to store their independent reading books and journals. The pocket is a bag that hangs on each child's chair and keeps their book choices readily available.

We will be working on Unit 9 (measurement) and Unit One (adding and subtracting 2 and 3 digit numbers) from third grade to end our year in math math.
In science we just finished the Air and Weather kit. I held the bubble lesson back and we will be completing it on the last day of school. We will also create ozalid pictures as a way to tie sun (UV rays), weather, and art (creating a positive/negative picture).
Humanities- We will be studying American symbols.
