Ms. Hahn’s Newsletter 

November 8, 2020

 

Spelling

We will be doing sort 19. There is a picture of this sort on Google Classroom. Please remind your child to study for the test on Friday. I do recommend that you have your child study the words beyond the daily lessons.

 

Reading

The students finished Chocolate Touch and completed (or almost completed) a timeline of important events in the book. Next week the students will do reading groups using stories sent home in the nature bag.

 

Writing

 

The students spend many days revising their narrative stories. Next week they will publish their stories. Then we will begin Unit 2 about Informational writing. Students will be working on organizing their ideas before they start writing.

 

Math

 

The students spent time graphing and solving multiplication problems.  Some of the problems the students solved involved multiple steps and many equations. They also took their Unit 3 assessment on Friday. Unit 3 is about rounding, addition, and subtraction. 

 

Science and Social Studies

The students spent time mapping Illinois last week. We labeled many rivers, cities, and the border states. Next week we will begin learning more about Illinois by studying glaciers, nonrenewable resources, renewable resources, and crops in Illinois.

 

Parent-Teacher Conferences

 

In third grade, parent-teacher conferences are student attended. When you sign up for a time please choose a time that you and your child are available. I will be doing conferences via Zoom. 

 

3rd Grade Report Cards

In third grade, the grades are all developmental. It is very common for students at the beginning of third grade to have many skills/standards that are still developing. This year is especially true with skills missed in the spring and e-learning. Below is the grading scale you will see on the report card.
