Math – Measuring in cm, m and km
Science – Weathering and erosion of land
Social Studies – Practice mapping skills using Longitude, Latitude
Language Arts – Proof reading and editing stories.
Reminder to Parents about Stanford Tests
During this week your child will be taking the Stanford Tests, Tenth Edition and the Otis Lennon School Ability Test, Eight Edition.
This week is a busy one for the children!
Grade 3 students should get approximately ten hours of sleep each night (we know this is tough, but try your best). In addition, they should come to school after a well balanced breakfast and with a fruit/vegetable snack for the mid-morning.
This week, due to the tests, the students will be given minimal homework in order for them to get plenty of rest, sleep and nourishment. Please ensure that they make a concerted effort to read each night, this will help them get in the swing of things in preparation for the sponsored read-athon that’s coming up in the weeks leading up to the next ‘Book Café’. More details to follow!
Thank you for your support.
