We have been very busy in third grade reading class! We just finished our first unit about Friendship. The story we read this past week was about Jackie Robinson. Our classes were very appalled by segregation (ask your child what that word means), and loved learning about Jackie Robinson's accomplishments, and the friendship between him and Pee Wee Reese.
Even though I send home the score sheet of what your child makes on his/her test each week, please be sure you are logging into Imagine It with your child so you can view his/her test, and go over missed questions. The skills repeat themselves a lot within the Imagine It stories, so reviewing what your child is struggling with now will help us correct it and increase their scores in the long run.
On Monday, we will begin our new unit: "Animals and Their Habitats." You can get a jump start on our story by logging into Imagine It and reading or listening to our new story: "One Small Place in a Tree." It is Unit 2 Lesson 1.
