We have our first two Forward tests this week Tuesday and Thursday. Hopefully students will be able to get a good night's rest the night before so they're ready to go for the tests!
Reminders:
If you didn't get a chance to turn in the surprise "Forward" encouragement note to your child, please send it in Monday. Make sure you seal it up so no sneaky eyes get to see! :)
If your child would like to practice the Forward tests at home, they can here. They would just click on the Online Tools Training or Item Sampler, Grade 3, ELA or Math. You might talk to your child about what tools (line guide, highlighter, sticky notes, cross out, etc.) they plan to use and which ones were distracting for them.
We started practicing cursive this week! Ask your child how they like it!
Coming up:
Curriculum:
Math: We're on to our FINAL math unit -- wow! This one wraps up the year nicely with Word Problems. Students now need to decide which operation to use (multiplication, division, addition, or subtraction.) Their Unit 7 Test did go home this week; make sure you ask to see it!
Writing: We have one more week of getting in some grammar concepts. We'll be talking about word parts, nouns, and proper nouns.
Reading: We have our Reading Forward tests this week! We'll also learn some ways to comprehend what's happening or what we're learning when we listen to reading.
Check out some of the fun from this week!
As always, please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.
