Third Grade Weekly Update
Dear Parents,
I hope you are doing well! I’ve decided to change it up a bit this year and send my weekly updates on Thursday instead of Friday. My schedule has changed a little, and I now find myself with a better window of time on this day. So please keep a lookout for my emails on Thursday!
Students have settled in nicely, and we have started our regular assignment routines that will continue throughout the year. This week, we introduced “Your Turn Practice Pages,” which contain comprehension and vocabulary strategies. After a targeted lesson, students are asked to complete these pages to further practice the concepts before taking an assessment on Friday. As you can see in our Learning Overview, we are working on visualizing, character traits, synonyms, and fantasy genres. Students will be asked to complete them on Thursday night for homework if they are unable to finish throughout the week (they are distributed on Tuesday generally).
Here are some dates to plan for:
- Tuesday, Sept 10- Picture Day
- Friday, Sept 13- NO SCHOOL: No Student Day, No Share and Care, Professional Development Day
- Tuesday, Sept 17- Free dress for Sept B-days
- Saturday, Set 21- FUN FAIR
- Wednesday, Sept 25- Noon Dismissal / Professional Development Day
Please be sure to read the SPN Weekly Newsletter every Tuesday to keep up with school info and events!
Have a great weekend!
Warmly,
Mrs. Costy
