During independent read, third graders wrote about the character(s) traits and feelings from their current independent reading book. When your child is reading at home, please ask them about character traits and feelings! I am sure that they will have a lot to say!

PS-third grade was able to have a math study hall today. Most finished their homework, but still should practice their 9 facts at home!

Today, students learned the importance of reading and writing a persuasive piece. Using our mentor text, I Wanna Iguana, students learned new

vocabulary words, and how to format a persuasive piece so that the reader is intrigued.

We also talked about important writing tools such as: a thesaurus, dictionary, post it notes and quick word.
