This week, we will continue Module 2- place value and problem solving with units of measure. We will be completing lessons 12-16.

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.

-My POV is the same as/different than the author's POV. In the text it says ______________. I think/I feel _________________.
This week's mystery is, "How can a lizard's toes help it survive?"
We will continue our creative writing unit! This week, students will work to "show not tell" while writing. We will also review dialogue and how to incorporate meaningful dialogue into our writing.
