Dear Parents/Guardians ,                                                                                        November 29, 2010
Spelling…. The words are on the green list – the extra words are December and read. There will be a spelling test on Friday.

Word a Day… WAD this week on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday.

Reading… Students will continue to work in small groups, read to self, work on writing, word work, listen to reading and read to someone. We are also working on writing our Reading Rainbow Writing contest stories. Remember to return November BookIt!
Your child is becoming a published author – please look over the order form -we have the opportunity to have our third grade stories printed and bound like a real book. Your child will get their original book printed for free. You are welcome to order more copies if you’d like. Please compete the order form and return it to school tomorrow (Tuesday). At the top of the light purple paper please check yes if you’d like to order more. If you do not want to order any – please check no and return the form anyway. I will need all forms back either way. Thanks for your help with this.

Math…We are going to skip ahead to Chapter 11 – Geometry and continue to review addition, subtraction, time and money. I am sending home the Chapter 11 Math News that goes along with this chapter – there is some very important math vocabulary in this chapter – things covered on the MCA, Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment tests. We will close the “Third Grade Store” after tomorrow. I will save the “merchandise” and will reopen the store again this spring. It has provided the students with some real life money counting experience.

Grammar… This week we are working on using a dictionary and will finish up this unit.

Social Studies/Science…
SS…we will work from our Time for Kids magazine and Map Skills book.
SCI …we will begin our next science kit – Magnetism and Electricity. All the students did a great job on their science fair project. Great thinking!

Show and Tell … Girls show and tell on Friday
