Parent teacher conferences will be coming in mid October. I am sending home a sign up sheet today to reserve your spot! It is first come, first serve. So please fill out your top three choices and return the form to school with your child. I will send home a confirmation letter with your confirmed date and time :)
State Benchmarks will be given the week of October 3rd. Please make sure your child is at school EVERY single day. Also, make sure they are well rested and eat a nutritious and solid breakfast to get their brains ready for the day. This is a great starting point to see how your child will do on the end of the year AzMerit.
Upcoming events
¨ Benchmarks the week of October 3rd
¨ Fall Break October 10-14 NO SCHOOL
¨ Conferences October 20 & 21
These will also be half days at school, dismissal at 11:45 am.
Reading: We are working on character feelings and emotions and answering questions about a text in full and complete sentences. In 3rd grade we do a lot of reading and a lot of comprehension about what we read. So please work with your child on talking about what they are reading.
Math: We are continuing our work on division. Your child should be able to divide with all numbers, with drawing a picture model to show their work.
Writing: In writing, we are continuing using thinking maps to organize our ideas. We are starting to turn these ideas and sentences into paragraphs, focusing on a beginning, middle and end.
Science/Social Studies: We are starting our unit on ecosystems! Your child will be learning about the different types of ecosystems found around the world. It will be so exciting to read about pine or tropical forests and ecosystems that they have never seen or heard of because of where we live in the desert.
As always, if you have any questions at all or concerns, call or e-mail me any time of the day! [email protected]
With love, Ms. Marsh
