Week of 9/29
Hello 3rd grade families!
This is the first of my weekly posts which will provide you with information on our plan for 3rd grade for the week. This will include information like what lessons we'll be covering, our spelling list, and any important events that would be coming up. Please make sure to subscribe on my class page so that you receive this post via email!
Agenda
Homework is sent home on Monday and due on Friday! Make sure to check in with your child to see that it gets done, otherwise they have to spend time on Friday working on it! If you are looking for extra work for them, you can have them log in to IXL and practice lessons. Please reach out if you need login codes.
Reading/Writing: This week we are reading fiction stories and
talking about main idea and inferences. We are also learning
about suffixes and spelling plural words and beginning the construction of our opinion essay about space.
