The students are working on answering their questions completely by using evidence based terms and restating the question.
We also worked on finding the main idea and supporting details of an article. This is something that will transfer into writing a summary.
3rd graders received their new spelling words. They will have a test on Thursday January 19th.
Writing: The students have started informational writing. They each picked a kind of extreme weather to research and write about.
Grammar: We reviewed contractions. The students practiced putting the apostrophe in the correct location when making a contraction. They also practiced writing the two words that make up a contraction.
Projects: We are learning about the different Earth systems and how they relate to weather.
