Reading: This week we continued working on finding the main idea and supporting details of an article.
The 3rd graders had a spelling test this week. I was disappointed with how many students told me they never looked at their words. Each student has a list that is developmentally appropriate for them and will help them grow as a speller and reader. They will receive new words on Monday.
Their will be a Latin/Greek test on Thursday 1/26 for 3rd and 4th grade.
Writing: The students continued through the writing process on their informative paper on a severe weather.
Grammar: We worked on making a noun plural, possessive and plural possessive.
Projects: We continued our Earth systems project. We did an experiment to show how clouds make precipitation.
Misc: Check your email for the school calendar for the 2017-2018 school year.
There was also an email sent out to order yearbooks.
