What a wonderful beginning to a new year! The students have been an absolute joy to be around. I can't tell you how impressed I am with their precious manners and thoughtful work. Each week I will update the blog with an overview of the week to come. Below you can get a glimpse at next week.
August 16 - 20, 2010
Reading - We will read the story Cliff Hanger from our textbooks. We will focus on predicting and inferring, identifying cause and effect, and base words. We will also begin reading the novel Muggie Maggie by Beverly Cleary.
English - We are focusing on the rules of capitalization.
Spelling - In third grade we begin our spelling units on Fridays and test on Thursdays. We will have our first test this coming Thursday. Two words will be added to the eighteen words from the book each week for a total of twenty words. I highly recommend spellingcity.com for studying purposes.
Math - We are quickly reviewing 2nd grade skills in Chapter One and will have a test on these skills Wednesday, August 18th.
Science - We are learning about ecosystems in Chapter Four.
Social Studies- We are learning the seven continents and four major oceans. We will test on this information Thursday, August 19th.
Bible - Memory work is due on Fridays. Next week's memory work is Psalm 19:14.
I am looking forward to another great week next week!
In Him,
Jennifer
