IMP Comes to Third Grade!
Our performance is scheduled for Wednesday morning, February 22nd
3K PARENTS January 27, 2012
Good Bye January…..Hello February! Here are some things we did this past week: · We read the incredible stories Dogzilla and Kat Kong and compared the two to each other. The writing these 3rd graders did was very good. I hope you had a chance to look at it the night we sent it home. · After reading the story of Dogzilla we read some nonfiction about volcanoes. That gave us the idea to create our very own volcano in the science lab. We did this activity with our first grade friends. It was so fun! · Scientist use specific words and steps in their work. We discussed the importance of predicting, observing and drawing conclusions in our work as young scientists. · We have been working on finding the main idea in passages we read and writing complete sentences to describe our answers thoroughly. · In math we have been creating and interpreting tables.
Next week: · Our math will include reviewing & interpreting bar graphs and pictographs. · In Language Arts we will read another fantasy story about a giant and focus on finding nouns, verbs and adjectives in some of the selections we read. You will see more stories with comprehension questions for homework next week.
