The first period was Language Arts, and we recognized how to pick a book properly. We also worked on our Read to Self stamina, and the students are well on their way to becoming amazing independent readers.
Right before lunch we had Math. The students colored and cut out base 10 lines until we had enough to see how many 1000 was. We related 1000 to hundreds and tens once we hung it up.
In Science, we made and tested a model airplane. Students made paper airplanes and began to test them. We will continue this lesson on Monday.
New SPELLING Words: Spelling tests will be on Friday mornings. I like to take a mix of vocabulary words and commonly used words. 5 of the new words can be found in Journeys p. 10-11.
soared, worried, announced, certainly, strolled, predict, observe, community, hundred, thousand
HOMEWORK:
1) Think-Tac-Toe - students are to choose 5 spelling words and complete 3 activities in the Think-Tac-Toe. Please choose one activity from each column, and you do not have to make a line to win like in tic-tac-toe.
NOTICES:
- Next Saturday, August 20 will be our meet the teacher day. I hope to see you all there, more information will be provided next week.
- sorry for the delay in handing out our class schedule, but it is now finalized and Library class will be on Mondays.
I would like to again express how proud I am of the Grade 3 students this week. We had a lot to do and the students responded very well. It's going to be a great year.
Have an awesome weekend.
Mr. Y
