Sweaters

-Temperatures in the classroom often fluctuate between warm and chilly. It is a good idea to send your scholar in with a jacket or layers so that they are comfortable throughout the day.

Mad Science will be visiting third grade classrooms on November 10 to present a hands-on science workshop. Please be sure to turn in your scholar's permission slip to their teacher soon. Payments can be made through School Cash Online, check, or exact cash to your scholar's teacher.

Students will begin the month by rounding numbers to the nearest 10 and 100. Rounding will lead into the students solving addition and subtraction problems with two- and three-digit numbers as well as subtracting across zeros. Students will learn multiple strategies to solve these problems as well as solve word problems.

As the new quarter begins, students are going to continue their learning about the human body. Students will explore the essential question: How do parts of the body work together to keep you alive?The unit focuses on comparing and contrasting systems of the body (nervous system, muscular system, and skeletal system).

This unit focuses on informational writing. Students will practice writing topic and concluding sentences for paragraphs. Students will also be learning the RACE writing strategy to help answer writing prompts clearly and confidently. This method teaches them to Restate the question, Answer it, Cite evidence, and Explain their thinking in complete, well-organized responses.

Students will investigate the phenomena of weather and climate. Students will define weather, analyze data to look for weather patterns. Students will be introduced to the difference between weather and climate and what the climate zones are around the United States and the world. Students will explore four examples of extreme weather (blizzard, thunderstorm, tornado, and hurricane).
