Have you noticed how nicely your student's cursive is looking? They are working very hard now on learning to write their names in cursive script. This week we will be practicing writing our spelling words in cursive during the week. The weekly test, however, will still be in printing.
We have been learning about Jackie Robinson in our Reader. Some of the 3rd graders were surprised to learn that he was a real person and not just a character in a movie! We will spend some time this week investigating the real man behind the number 42. It gives us a great research topic for World Series week!
Here is the link to one video I will be sharing with the class this week: Jackie Robinson Video
Starting this week I will be sending home the Class Dojo reports with the students' graded work on Tuesdays. It seems reasonable to cut down on the number of days you are looking for papers to sign, check off on, examine, etc.
This week in technology we will be investigating maps! We will be using Brain Pop Jr. to assist us in our investigations. If you want to join us, here is the link! Brain Pop Geography
