Dear 3rd-Grade Families,
It has been a wonderful school year! As you prepare for the holidays, consider the following ideas for continuing learning at home, or on the road as you travel!
Reading: Please read every day! Children have been introduced to the Reading World Cup Challenge. More information can be found on the Library website. Remember, there are loads of reading resources on this site! For example, Tumblebooks.com (Username: Graded, password: books) can be used to complete the World Cup Challenge.
Don't forget to log-in to Raz-kids.com to read loads of "good-fit books". Your child's account is still active!
Writing: It is always a great idea to keep a holiday diary! Also, students can share their holiday stories by completing the Holiday Slide Show. This is an optional vacation assignment. Click on the link to learn more about it. Ask you 4th Grade teacher if you can share or do a presentation for your family.
Math: Students may work on Skills Navigators, Khan Academy or Mathletics.com. They should practice their math skills 3-5 times per week during the holidays.
A couple of areas in math to review:
- Continue memorizing multiplication facts to 10x10
- Memorizing division facts
- Reviewing perimeter and area
- Adding and subtracting large numbers
It is important for Math to come alive in everyday situations. Please refer to this site for ideas on how to make mathematical thinking visible to your child.
Thank you again for a fabulous year. It was a pleasure getting to know you and your children. Have a safe and joyful holiday and we will see you in Grade 4!
