Language Arts:
Students continue to enjoy the a wide variety of stories and tales from cultures around the world. It has been a wonderful opportunity to develop critical thinking skills and appreciate cultural diversity. In reading these tales, the classes are better able to identify important story elements and analyze varying plots. In writing, the third graders have the opportunity to create adapted fairytales of their own. Please encourage your child to retell the stories they are reading. This is a wonderful opportunity to help your child to develop his/ her oral language.
Social Studies:
Over the next two weeks, students will be researching about cultures from around the world. Their research will focus on eight areas: clothing, jobs, food, transportation, arts, holidays, games, and language. They will share their learning with our parent community on Thursday, March 23 at 2:30 pm. We look forward to seeing you!
During their research, students will be using library books as well as an excellent learning website http://online.culturegrams.com/. Please take some time to browse this valuable learning tool with your child at home. Here is the login information. Username: T187105 Password: O38NTNIWJG
