Third Grade just finished their first theme! I am so impressed at the readers that we have. We will not continue on to our next theme which is all about Traditions. The students will learn about traditions from many cultures as we read:
The Keeping Quilt by Patricia Polacco
Anythony Peynsos: Born to Rope by Marha Cooper and Ginger Gordon
The Talking Cloth by Rhona Mitchell
Dancing Rainbows by Evelyn Clarke Mott
We will also be starting cursive handwriting. The students seem very excited about this.
As always keep studying those spelling words for our weekly test!

We just finished our first unit in Social Studies. We learned all about different geography skills and maps. Each Third grader even drew their own map of our classrooms. They turned out great!
We will now be continuing on in Science. In this unit we will be learning about about Matter, Mass, and Engery. We will be completing some educational labs, reading in our books, taking some notes, and even playing with Oobelck!
Don't know what Oobleck is? Just wait until you see it!!!
