Third graders work on developing multiplication fluency

We had another busy day in third grade today.

We started with Poetry Ringo.  Our goal is to finish this week.

We worked with multiplication fluency.  We first played a game in pairs.  Each had 10 rolls.  They had to multiply the 2 dice. They had to then add up each product.  After the 10 rolls the person with the most won. We also took our daily multiplication quiz.  The percentages they make on these are not put in the grade book. The goal with these are to improve and become more fluent with their facts.

We worked with the dictionaries today, specifically with guide words.  They had to find a word then tell me the guide words.  We also read with a peer today.   We are enjoying our rainforest books. They had the option of bringing one home for an extra reading assignment.  It was OPTIONAL. 

We started work on our "Critter Cards."  Each student is going to choose one animal to research. They will be an animal from the rainforest.

I cannot believe there are only 13 days of school left!  I feel we just got started!
