Week #5 Tidbits

                                            
We had a fabulous week in third grade! I took a lot of pictures of our adventures and uploaded them in a separate post that you can find here.

Curriculum Tidbits:

  • This week we'll shift to learning about what it means to be set apart as God's people by learning about the book of Leviticus in Bible.
  • We will continue to write our personal narratives and what it means to start with a "hook".
  • In reading, we are using Because of Winn-Dixie by Kate DiCamillo as a mentor text to help us learn about complex characters in out new unit called Understanding Characters.
  • We'll continue expanding our understanding of the process of multiplication and division.
  • We'll continue learning about the History of Michigan in Social Studies and expand on what we learned at Connor Bayou.
