Third graders finish busy day with place value practice, context clues, synomyms, spelling


Our day was a busy one today.  We started with some more place value practice. We are struggling with that.

We worked more with context clues in our stories.  We also played alphabet bingo.  The first time I just called the letters.  Then I mixed it up by saying "It is the letter that starts ______, or ends with ______, or is the second letter in the word _______."  They had to think, and know their spelling words, as I used a lot of them as examples. Your child brought home another book to read to you.  If your child struggles with a word, please do not make them sound it out.  Just tell them the word.  It will make you and your child much happier!

We also worked with synonyms.  Synonyms are one of the clues that help us in a story.

We also found mistakes in our spelling words and a sentence using our words.

Fundraiser packets are ow due.  And don't forget to send in your t-shirt orders, as well.
