THE LAST WEEK OF APRIL!! Where has our time gone? For our final 25 days for school we will be doing an ABC countdown. Each day we will be taking a letter and doing some type of activity to go with that letter. Last Friday we kicked off our ABC Countdown with A, which was Art Day. I will add what we are doing for the week under our important dates. Please make sure to check the blog every week to make sure that your child does not miss out on anything.
Under the important dates I have also included our end of level testing schedule. Please make sure that look over those dates and make note of them.
Below is what we will be working on for the week. If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Math –We will be working on area & perimeter for the next couple of weeks. Below is the family letter from our math work book that explains what we will be working on. On the second page of the letter, there is an activity to help students with what we are working on. You are not required to do the activity, it is just a suggestion if you would like your child to practice at home. THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT WE ARE DONE WITH MULTIPLICATION. MANY STUDENTS ARE STILL WORKING ON MEMORIZING THEIR FACTS. While we work on our multiplication facts in class, it is so important that students practice their facts at home. 3rd graders are required to pass of their 0-10 facts before they move onto 4th grade.
ELA – We made it! This week will be the last week for our Wonders books. Below is an outline of what we will be working on for Unit 6 Week 5.
