Welcome to Third Grade!


 


 

 

Wow! It’s hard to believe the year has ended.  We had lots of fun and learned many things.  Our pen-pal program was a huge success on both ends, everyone had a great experience and it definitely encouraged the children to write.  They also improved their writing skills.  We have all learned to write in cursive.  We have done a great job learning multiplication and division. We all can read chapter books.  Some BINGO book reports have come in and look great, we will be sharing those throughout the next couple of weeks.

 

I hope everyone has a wonderful summer! 

 

To get ready for 4th grade:

  1. Don’t forget to read, read and read.  Practice makes you better. 
  2. Don’t forget to keep practicing all your math facts.  Card games, flash cards, dice and computer games make this fun.  Searching on the Internet under practice math facts gives many creative games and fun things to do.
  3. Try to write some things in cursive over the summer and work on slanting all the same way.

 

It has been a wonderful year with your children.  Thank you for all your help and support.
