In third grade our main focus in reading
is the use of the five strategies: Predict/Infer, Monitor/Clarify,
Question, Summarize, and Evaluate. One of these strategies is used on a
weekly basis throughout the year along with a weekly comprehension
skill. As your child reads nightly, he/she should practice using these
strategies.
In math, we strive to accommodate all learning styles by incorporating
the use of manipulatives, technology, pair-tutoring, and flexible
grouping. Parents should work with their child to complete nightly
homework.
This is the first year your child will be taking the Maryland State
Assessment (MSA) Test. It is essential that parents review and offer
extended practice beyond homework time.
With the support of our parents, we are sure to have a successful year!
