Shoes
Please make sure your child has shoes each day. They are not supposed to be wearing boots inside.
Spelling
We will not have a list next week since there is no school on Friday.
Math
The students have been working on fractions this week. They identified parts of a whole, learned how to name mixed numbers, and began working on fraction number lines.
Please get a box of flash cards so you can work with your child. 5 minutes per night goes a long way!
Thank you for your support!
Reading
The students have been reading several short stories focusing on the character traits. We will be using these stories in writing later to write literary essays. They have had some interesting insights!
Religion
The 3rd graders have been learning about the Church being apostolic. Next week we will focus on Holy Week.
Social Studies
The focus has been an introduction to economy. We talked about goods and services and what it means to be a consumer.
Science
We started a new unit called Environments and Survival. The students learned that bio-engineers use biomimicry to design things to help us. They also looked at an animal and tried to decide if that animal would likely or not likely survive in each of four different environments.
