Third Grade Musical Bags Third Grade Musical Bags

This week, students brought home a grey bag to put their costume in for the musical. Students need to bring the bags back to school on Monday, November 16th with all of their checklist items inside. They can deliver their bag to the music room before or after school on November 16th.

Multiplication and Division Facts Multiplication and Division Facts

As we start our new unit on Multiplication and Division, we will be adding a component to our weekly homework. Please practice this daily for 10 minutes to ensure fluency and confidence as we move through our multiplication and division unit!



Remember, building multiplication fact fluency is a long process that third graders will spend the remainder of the year practicing. This skill must be practiced both at school and at home in order to reach mastery. Additional fact practice done at home is encouraged!
