Reading-

We are so excited to start our 3rd grade ELA journey! We will start our year off by doing a cursive boot camp! Students will learn the basic strokes and formation of letters. We will also have an exciting book tasting party at the end of the week to reveal our topic for our first module.

Students will start math this week with reviewing 2nd content, starting with place value.

Students will use place value understanding to represent. read,write, and compare numerical values up to 10,000 and round whole numbers up to 1,000.

Every 6 weeks we will switch between Science and Social Study standards. We will begin this week with science learning about soil.

Welcome back, 3rd grade students and families! My name is Mrs. Amanda Montgomery and I will be one of your child's Reading Specialists for this year. I am excited to start this school year by getting to know all of your child's strengths and then making a plan to help them grow as readers. Please do not hesitate to email me (amontgomery@marietta-city.k12.ga.us) or call, if you have any questions or concerns. This is going to be a great year of growth.

3rd grade will start their beginning of the year literacy assessments on August 4th. This process will take about 3 weeks to complete and it is very important for your child to be at school, ready to give their best! Thank you for all you do at home to support us here at school.

Sincerely,

Mrs. Amanda Montgomery
