What’s Different About Third Grade? * longer periods of attention * higher expectations * higher level of responsibility * more than one skill/concept within one lesson (build upon prior knowledge) * more text on pages * more depth to concepts (especially in Social Studies & Science) * application of learned skills * more detailed writing is expected * attention to organizational skills and study habits Student Government
Remind Your Child About These Things * to watch and listen during lessons * to participate to show understanding of the lesson * to ask questions when they are confused * to check work CAREFULLY * to watch their spelling * to bring papers home daily * to read and reread directions carefully * to write their name on all papers * to complete homework each night
