?Monday, May 11, 2020 Dear 3rd Grade Students and Families, Welcome to the ninth week of remote learning! Below, please find a schedule of daily learning activities for this week. Since school closures have been extended to the rest of the school year, the 3rd grade team is working to provide grade-wide consistent plans and resources. Every week students will be given five virtual teacher-created lessons that students can go through at their own place. We dispersed the lessons over the course of a week so students would have one virtual lesson per day from each classroom teacher in Grade 3. The links for these lessons will be embedded within the posted weekly schedule. It will also be posted under an additional left-hand side tab on the grade level website titled “Virtual Lessons”. Many of these lessons have been created using the site Nearpod. Students will need to enter their first name, last initial, and class (3C, 3F, 3M, 3N, 3V) before beginning their lesson on Nearpod. Your child will be provided with other learning opportunities in each subject area, on days that an interactive lesson is not assigned.These learning activities are now recommended for all students, as new topics will be introduced during the month of May. Students, you can still complete them in any order you choose, and you can do multiple day’s activities if you’d like! Also, feel free to keep trying activities from the previous weeks that you did not complete, or any of the additional learning activities your teachers have suggested. Also, please remember that if any resources are giving you technical difficulties, or you are becoming overly frustrated, simply let your teacher know and move on to another learning activity. We want remote learning to remain as stress-free for all as it possibly can be!Parents, please reach out to your child’s teacher directly if you need assistance logging in or with any of the sites and resources. We have attached the Symbaloo link below that can bring you to many of the resources. There is also a link on our grade level website. This continues to be new territory for us all. We appreciate your help and flexibility during this challenging time!Thank you and stay well,The Third Grade TeachersTimeMonday 5/11Tuesday 5/12Wednesday 5/13Thursday 5/14Friday 5/159:00 – 9:45Math XtraMath Warm-UpReview: Adding 3-digit numbers Warm-UpReview: Comparing Unit Fractions PIN: 08931902 XtraMath Warm-UpLesson: Comparing Fractions use the code: XAFDURemember to put in your first name, last initial and class upon entering the lesson.XtraMath Warm-UpPractice: Comparing fractions with the same denominatorVideo: : 373439XtraMath Warm-UpPractice: Comparing Fractions with the same numeratorVideo: : : 9885519:45 – 10:30ELAReading: Topic: Determining the Lesson in a Story Click on the following link to access the Nearpod lesson: use the code: USCHBRemember to put in your first name, last initial and class upon entering the lesson.
