10/11/18 Third Grade

10/11/18

Dear Families,
What a week!  We welcomed students from the Middle High School on Wednesday who taught us about stereotypes.  They wrote books that they read and led small group discussions on common stereotypes.  On Thursday, students from the Middle High School came down to continue teaching third graders American Sign Language.  It is so nice to see students from both campuses learning together!  Here is what else we have been doing:

Reading:  We started Stone Fox.  Students will be working on stopping and doing quick comprehension checks by asking common questions.

Writing: We are working on being more precise with our word choices in our writing.  Students have brainstormed precise verbs and color words.  We will also explore how we can add sound words to our writing in order to make it more interesting.

***Tomorrow is our All School Hike!  PLEASE make sure students are dressed appropriately.  We anticipate the trail will be wet so if they have waterproof hiking shoes please make sure they wear them.

Upcoming Dates:
10/12    All School Hike
10/31    Early Release Day
