What Is Happening In Third Grade

Miss Dittmar- Room A3

   

READING/LANGUAGE

In reading we will be reading a non-fiction selection on tornadoes and other storms.  Be sure to ask your child about one thing they learned from the selection.   In language we will be studying singular and plural nouns.  We will also be doing some activities with homophones. 

For November students will need to read a book that is a folktale or talltale.  If you cannot find a chapter book for this theme, a picture book will be fine.   The report for the month is the "Happy Hang-Up".  A copy of the directions was sent home with your child.  They can also be found below.        

 

MATH

We have started our unit on multiplication.  The students are very excited to learn these facts.  We have already learned several games to play and we have learned some tricks for remembering the facts.  The goal is for students to have the basic multiplication facts memorized by the end of the school year (facts 0-12).    Second quarter we will begin giving timed multiplication fact tests to help reach this goal.    Be sure that your child has a set of flash cards to help them study at home.  There are also many websites to help students learn facts.  I have some listed below.   Have them start with 0,1,2, 5, and 10.  If you try to do all the facts at once, it can become very overwhelming.  

 

RELIGION

This week we will be taking a look at what it means to have compassion and mercy.  We will learn about how Jesus taught us to help our neighbors and forgive others.  

 

SOCIAL STUDIES and SCIENCE

We are taking a look at life in different American Indian communities.   We are learning about how the communities are the same and different.  We are also learning about what life is like today for each of the communities.      

 In Science we are starting our unit on life science.  We will start by learning about plants and trees. 

OTHER NOTES

 

Time to get more boxtops in!!!  Thanks for all your support.

 

We will be going to Mount Carmel on November 17.  We are planning on playing BINGO with them.  

 

Don't forget to send in food for the food drive.  We are also collecting treats for stuffing stockings for the soldiers.    Any donation that you can make will be appreciated.  

 

I will be sending home Scholastic Book orders next week for both November and December.  Remember that books make great Christmas presents.   Orders are due on November 25.
