Dear Families,

It was a busy full week back to school.

We've begun practicing for the SBAC testing.  Our practice includes learning test taking skills and becoming familiar with navigating the testing site.  Our first testing session will be the week of April 10th.  We will complete the English Language Arts section during that week.  Then during the week of May 8th, we will complete the math portion of the test.

Our new writing unit will be opinion writing.  Students will learn to write a claim, provide evidence,  and write a closing.  We look forward to sharing our topics and student responses with you.

In math, we are finishing Unit 4: Measurement and Fractions.  We will be taking our unit 4 test next week.  Then we will be moving into Unit 5: Multiplication, Division, and Area.

Next week we are holding our spring conferences.  Please use the Sign-Up Genius sent by your child's teacher to select a time.  We look forward to discussing your child's progress.

Have a great weekend,

The Third Grade Teachers
