2. What We’re Learning This Month
Reading: FACTS! FACTS! FACTS!
Now that the ELA exam is behind us, let’s concentrate on facts. Students will explore nonfiction topics in science and social studies. Third graders will make connections between texts.
Writing: I know…
This month, Third graders will write informational pieces on topics that they will do research on. They will pick a topic, research it and write a proper report on it. It is
going to be an AMAZING work!
Math: Comparing Fractions
This month, third graders are going to be studying how to compare fractions. For example: You have 4/6 of a personal pizza and your friend has 6/6 of a personal pizza, who has more pizza? Hmmmm? We are going to learn by using manipulatives and by drawing and solving our own problems.
Social Studies: A along time ago....
After learning about important women during the month of March, third graders will be traveling back to Egypt and learning about the rich culture of this country. Students will learn about the mummification process and the Pharaohs.
Science: Growing in Science
This month we will begin our learning about how all living things grow, take in nutrients, breathe reproduce and eliminate waste.
