What Third Grade Means…It means…Your child will have greater personal
responsibility.Your child moves from learning to read
to reading to learn.Your child works independently on
homework with you checking to see if it is done.

Flexible GroupingsGroups are based on current achievement/performance
data. In 3rd grade, this data includes: 4Sight scores, DIBELS
data, writing prompts, spelling inventories, and DDS data.We continually monitor students' performance and
progress to ensure we are meeting their instructional needs.
Groups are flexible, fluid, and change throughout the year.Teachers will notify parents of any changes in their child’s
groups.

Data and Testing-DIBELSDIBELS stands for (Dynamic Indicators of Basic
Early Literacy Skills) and is a standardized assessment that we perform 3 times per year with progressing monitoring for students not reaching designated benchmarks. It assesses students oral reading fluency and accuracy on the DORF portion and comprehension on the DAZE portion. Third grade has the benchmark goals of 100 words a minute with 97% accuracy.
Please be sure that you are reading daily with your child.
