Reading: Thank you to all of the parents who take the
time to check that your child is reading each
evening! Students are responsible for filling out
reading logs each day and evening. Everyone had a
chance to pick out a brand new book last week, thanks
to the Reading Is Fundamental program.
Math: This week we begin Topic 7 on Reading and Interpreting Graphs. The students will be learning
how to read graphs, and will be gathering data and
creating their own graphs.Writing: This week we begin a unit on informational writing. Students will use information they have learned from their nonfiction books to help them write to teach others.I was very happy with the growth students showed on their persuasive writing final assignment.IPads: The 3rd graders have been using a fun app called Seesaw. I have included, in the Wednesday folder, directions for viewing your child’s work on this app.
Notes from Room 102We have learned so much from our “Agriculture in the Classroom guest! Yesterday she taught the students where wool comes from and how it is transformed into cloth. Students had a chance to make a weaving of their own!

3rd graders were so excited to see the successful landing of the NASA rover, InSight, last
week after traveling for 6 months and 300 million miles! We have learned why Mars is considered “the red planet,”
and why some scientists believe there may have once
been water on Mars!
