Fantastic Firsties
In reading:
We have been busy working on reviewing our letters and sounds.
We are now turning those sounds into words and sentences.
We are practicing our reading and answering comprehension questions about our stories.
In math:
We are adding and subtracting numbers to 20.
We are working on word problems. We use the words in the problem to determine if we are going to add
or subtract.
In Science:
We are learning the difference between living and non-living.
Please remember to read with your child nightly.
Looking forward to another great month of learning and adventure 😊

Third grade is learning all about characters, how they develop through the story, what motivates them to take action, and the consequences of their choices. We're also writing opinion essays about the stories we read. During math, we're continuing to deepen our understanding of multiplication and division. Science is all about living things, both animals and plants. Continue having your child read and practice their multiplication facts every night!
