We are officially half way through third grade! We celebrated the end of AIMsWeb and the first half of our year with cupcakes today. Our first half of the year was filled with fun things like our glow in the dark Fun Run, a freezing Halloween Parade, a cozy movie day, a hilarious game day, oh... and a little bit of learning! It has been a great first half and we are looking forward to starting the next part of our journey!
We finished up our writing project this week. The students stories were filled with wonderful similes and rich, descriptive words. Students came up with their stories and either typed or hand wrote their first draft. From there, I gave them feedback and ideas of how to improve their story. They chose had to incorporate that feedback in their own words. The best part was listening to all of the stories and complimenting each student's writing style. I think there may be a few future authors in this room! Up next we are going to start studying our states. Each student will take a deep dive into learning about a state other than New Hampshire. Students will also practice identifying where states are across the country. We start big, looking at continents, and end the week learning about those states. This research project will use traditional books and webpages to create their project. Important Dates: 🧪 Wednesday, January 26th - Visiting Scientist! A Look Ahead: 🟠 In math, we'll be looking at fractions and multiplication helper facts 📜 In reading, we're reading about history and why it is important 🗺️ In social studies, we'll be introducing geography and the states
