Dear Parents,

We have been learning a lot this week and you are about to find out all about it! First we have been studying about classification. Our class has learned that there are reptiles, amphibians, birds, mammals, insects, and fish. Mr. Grillo divided us into groups and we are starting to research about these different classifications. Next, in writing, we have been learning about topic sentences. It has been fun learning how to write topic sentences because we have practiced writing these sentences in groups. A topic sentence is when you begin a story and it is important because this sentence tells the reader what you are going to write about. Finally math has been great. Each morning we have a problem of the day and other brain twisting work to do. Parents look at our binders because we now have fact practice to do each night. As you can see we have been learning lots of new stuff.





Sincerely,

Your Third Grade

PS
I still need to parents for the Salmon festival. Also thank you parents for helping your student complete their homework each night. Our blog address is classof2018.blogspot.com
