Hi everyone! We made it through another month! We are continuing to prep for the MCAP coming up very soon! Students should be practicing the Quizlet vocabulary words as well as the practice tests online to help prepare for the test. We are doing lots of practice in the classroom, but it would be beneficial for students to continue practicing at home as well. We also have finished the LAST ROUND of the MAP assessments for reading and math! Yay! Scores are being sent home currently. Let's make sure we continue to check Canvas daily so we can keep up with all of our work for the fourth quarter! Reminder that next week, there is NO SCHOOL on Tuesday, May 3. We are at the point in the year where school supplies are low and we are running out of cleaning wipes. If anyone would like to donate cleaning wipes, we would greatly appreciate it! Please use our Google Site as it has many helpful resources for you all! There is a weekly assignment breakdown that can help parents keep up with students' assignments, a grade level newsletter, and many other important resources. Here's the link to our google site: https://sites.google.com/pgcps.org/3rdgradeclasssite From your 3rd Grade Team! :)
