March 23rd-Week 2 of learning

3rd Grade Learning-Week 2

Dear Families,
Please let us know your needs as at-home learning continues. Our goal is to stay connected with you and your child.  We want to help your child maintain skills, but that will look different for each of our families. Let us know what we can do so your family feels supported and not overwhelmed. 

Feel free to choose from the fun activities below. Remember that there are many ways to learn. Family nature walks, creative play (creating dance videos, making playdoh, legos), writing emails/letters/notes to family, and cooking, are all fun learning opportunities. We will also post optional SeeSaw activities. 


For children that are seeking books to read, we have enrolled our classes in EPIC. Access this through the symbaloo. Children can choose real literature to read (or be read to). Many of these books will still be Reading Counts books! Class Codes are listed below.


Math:
1. Skill work
IXL Math recommendations, skill work, or Moby Max Math is available to keep up on math skills. 

Reading: 
Continue to work toward our class goal of 1 book per week. Reading Counts is available between the hours of 8am-4pm, Monday through Friday only. Some of you may be reading longer books and that is wonderful! We will post our weekly reports each week, keep up the good work!
