This week, we will wrap up module 5 which is all about fractions. We will complete lessons 27, 28, and 29. These lessons focus on explaining equivalence, comparing fractions with pictures and comparing fractions and reasoning about their size. Our End of Module 5 Assessment is on Friday, March 20.
Need help with homework? Search "Eureka Math, third grade, module 1 lesson ___" on YouTube :) Each day in class, we will be completing a portion (or all) of the problem set. Students are responsible for completing the corresponding homework pages for our daily lesson on Monday through Thursday each week. Please make sure your child is putting their workbook right back in their backpack after completing their homework. You will find all homework assignments written in their planner and on our class webpage.

Our focus skills this quarter are:
(RI 3.1) I can ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers.
(RI 3.2) I can determine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea.
(RI 3.3) I can describe the relationship between a series of historical events, scientific ideas or concepts, or steps in technical procedures in a text, using language that pertains to time, sequence, and cause/effect.
(RI 3.4) I can determine the meaning of general academic and domain-specific words and phrases in a text.
(RI 3.7) I can use information gained from illustrations (e.g., maps, photographs) and the words in a text to demonstrate understanding of the text.

At the beginning of the week, we will continue to utilize practice assessments to prepare students for completion of IAR testing. We will also begin using our sprout pencils to prepare them for planting. On Wednesday and Thursday students will be completing the ELA portions of IAR testing.

This week we will be exploring magnets. Our Mystery Science lesson is "What can magnets do?"
We will be using our writing time to catch up on any missing work and complete Math lessons due to IAR testing.

No new base
