Welcome to Mrs. Bowles' Third Grade Web page! 




My how the school year is flying by!  Before you know it we will be at EOG time.  Please remember that you are always welcome to come in and join us for lunch.  Our lunch time is from 11:00-11:30.

 

Language Arts

 In Language Arts we are working with a new unit that is all about Incredible Stories.   We are also continuing to work with the concept of UNRAAVEL. This is a strategy for working with and answering questions about a reading selection/passage.

Underline title

Now predict the passage

Run through and number the paragraphs

Are you reading the questions?

Are the important words circled? (Write down their meaning)

Venture (read) through the passage

Eliminate the obviously wrong answers

Let the questions be answered and write the paragraph number where you found the answers next to each question.





Math

In Math we have started to work with our multiplication facts.  We are learning the facts all the way to 12x12.  Along with learning our facts, we are working on learning more about measurement.  We are continuing to work with our  strategy for solving math word problems.  It is also called UNRAAVEL.

Underline the question

Now predict what you think you need to do to solve the problem

Read the word problem

Are the important words circled? (Especially the clue words)

Apply the steps you chose to solve the problem

Verify your answer..Is it reasonable?  Does it make sense?

Eliminate wrong answers

Let the answer stay or rework the problem






Science

In Science we are working on Science Fair Projects.  We are also beginning to work with the Skeletal System. As we study the skeletal system we will learn the names and locations of various bones.  We will also complete two Itech lessons that go along with the skeletal system unit.
