9/19/19 Third Grade

9/19/19

Dear Families,
What a wonderful week we have had!  We are well underway with our ELA classwork. Here's an update:

Reading:  Students have learned all about our classroom library and have started conferencing with us and selecting independent reading books.  We are currently 'sampling' the books during read aloud by reading the first couple chapters of the various series in our library.  This has helped students select their independent reading books.

Writing:  We have worked hard to fill our Idea Banks and learned how to choose an idea, rehearse, and start an entry in our Writer's Notebooks.  Students will be working on their writing stamina as they continue to add entries to their notebooks.

Upcoming Important Dates:
10/4     All School Hike
10/8     Picture Day
10/10   Open House/Harvest Dinner
