Multiplication Facts

Parents,

We have made it through our first week of studying our multiplication facts! Each week we will send home flash cards over chosen facts that need to be studied for the week. The goal is by the end of 3rd grade your child will have their facts mastered! Each week we will take a timed multiplication test over the facts studied. Please help your child study 5-10 minutes each night! Today we will take our 2's & 5's test :) Thank you for you help and happy studying!

Thanks!

2nd Six Weeks

Wow!! The first six weeks is complete! We are now into the second six weeks and things are moving right along! This week with Mrs. Macat we have been working on addition, subtraction, and temperature. With Mrs. Mouser we are learning about biographies and working with ir, ur, and er words. This week we began working on our Guided Math and Guided Reading groups so ask your child what they did during their group time. It will vary from day to day but we are using this time for interventions and enrichment to meet your childs needs the best we can.

Also, be looking for a permission form to come home this week about posting pictures of your child on our blog!

Until next time,

Remind 101 Text Messages

Have you ever heard of Remind 101?? This is something new that we are implementing this year and we hope that you sign up for it. Remind 101 allows you to receive text messages from us reminding you of important events, dates, homework assignments, etc... This will be a nice feature if we forget to send a note home, or if the note never makes it home LOL, or if we forget to tell your child something before the end of school. It is totally free to sign up but standard text message charges apply.

You will need to sign up to receive messages from both Mrs. Macat and Mrs. Mouser so you will have all subjects covered!

To receive reminder messages......

Your Macat math class should follow these steps to receive your messages:

---

1. Send a text message to (442) 333-4306

2. With the message  @macat

Your Mouser reading class should follow these steps to receive your messages:

Sept. 10th - Sept. 14th

We are now entering into the third week of school and curriculum night is this Thursday from 6:00-7:30! If you can come we would love to visit with you! You will get a chance to meet with our new principal then spend some time with Mrs. Mouser and Mrs. Macat to discuss setting up conferences, homework information, etc...

Here is a look at the rest of the week.

In Mrs. Mouser's class we are working on Plot Development and Sequencing. For writing this week we will be adding details to our quick write.

In Mrs. Macat's class for math we will begin comparing and ordering numbers through 9,999. In science we will be learning about mass and doing a sink or float lab. Pictures will be coming soon!

 

September 4th - September 7th

Wow! We have already made it through our first week of school and have had our first holiday! Now that we are settled into our school routine, each week we will post information about our week! So to start off...here is a look at this week.

In Mrs. Mouser's class, this week we are working on understanding characters, setting, and plot. We are also practicing using context clues to understand the meaning of words.

In Mrs. Macat's class, this week we are working on place value up to the hundred thousands place. We are reading and writing numbers in standard form, expanded form, and word form up to 999,999. We are also discussing matter and are going to do two labs this week!

Again, please remember to read with your child each night and check for understanding and help your child show their work on their math homework!

Thanks!
 

Welcome to Third Grade!

Welcome to Mrs. Mouser and Mrs. Macat's third grade blog.  We are so excited to start this new school year and get to know your child.  We use this blog as a communication tool between school and home.  Instead of sending weekly newsletters we will put all of that information on this blog.  Anything regarding homework and due dates, upcoming events, important notes, etc. will be updated weekly to keep you informed.  Along with the day to day housekeeping information we will also use the blog to show you what we are doing in classroom.  You will get to see and hear all about what is going on at school.

Not only will we update the blog but throughout the year, your child will have the opportunity to do so as well.  We want you to hear from them about the things they are learning and experiencing in the classroom.  They get very excited about the cool new things they are doing and love sharing that with their family.

Please feel free to comment on posts that you read.  We love getting feedback and hearing from you, the parent. 

 Thank you for sharing your child with us and we look forward to meeting you on Thursday, August 23rd from 4:00-6:30.
