About our Third Grade Groups:

In our weekly groups we will:

 

• build confidence and develop a love of math and reading. 

​

• review, practice and extend what students are learning in their third grade classroom. 

​

• learn to monitor comprehension, ask questions and make connections while reading. 

​

• build comprehension skills through drawing conclusions, inferencing, finding main idea and details, summarizing and identifying text features in both fiction and nonfiction texts. 

​

• develop a stronger vocabulary working with prefixes/suffixes, synonyms/antonyms, multiple meaning words and context clues. 

​

• develop the essential building blocks for a stronger math foundation with a focus on number sense, place value, automaticity with math facts, fractions, patterns and tables, geometry, measurement, mathematical reasoning and financial literacy. 

​

• develop strategies for attacking multi-step word problems. ​

​

• learn in a fun, safe and encouraging environment.
