ELA: We read the first chapter of our novel, Peter Pan last week. As we continue to read, we will focus on some new concepts directly related to reading literary text. We will track literary elements such as WHERE: the setting of each chapter, WHO: the most important characters and traits that describe them, and WHAT: the main events that take place. We will use Where / Who / What throughout the book to help us keep the elements organized. What we read in class is great to talk about at home to work on summarizing and retelling skills.
There will be no spelling this week. Instead, students will have 2 sheets due Thursday that review important third grade language skills. They will go home Monday. Please continue to read daily and complete at least one Achieve article during the week.
Below are some pictures of us sharing our Freaky Frog Trading Cards... After researching, note taking, and writing, it was fun sharing and listening.
MATH: In math the students will analyze different rectangles and
reason about their area. They will apply
the distributive property as a strategy to find the total area of a large
rectangle by adding two products. They will solve problems to find the possible
side lengths of rectangles with areas of 24, 36, 48, or 72 square units using
the associative property.The students will solve word problems involving area
and find area by decomposing or completing figures to form rectangles.
