Week of 9/23-9/27

Dear families,
It has been a great week in third grade! I am so proud of the students for their outstanding performance on their citizenship test today! They have been working cooperatively and exploring lots of new learning programs as we become more familiar with the Henrico County Learning Profile.


Next week in third grade we will be learning about nonfiction text in reading. The students will identify text features and make, confirm, and revise predictions in nonfiction text. In writing we will complete a paragraph that describes fall. In math we will continue to learn about place value through the hundred thousands place, and practice comparing and ordering four digit numbers. In science we will learn about animal behavior including adaptations, learned behavior, and instincts.
Thank you to all the families that have signed up for our digital Back to School Night! If you haven’t already, please take a few moments to read through the slides and sign up for a fifteen minute slot on the last slide. If you sign up for a time after 3:30 pm I will need to speak with you on the phone. Any time before 3:30 pm is great for a face to face meeting! I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Your child’s daily folder is an important resource for you to stay connected with what is happening at school. Today their is their PAW check, information about upcoming MAPS testing, PTO membership information, and a feedback form about our digital Back to School Night. Please sign and return these forms on Monday!
