HELLO THIRD GRADERS!

Welcome to the 2011-2012 School Year. This year we are focusing on math. Our math curriculum is called California Mathematics by Macmillan McGraw Hill. There is a CD teacher addition available with the textbook. We strongly encourage your student to start the year by learning their multiplication facts. By the end of the year they must master the facts in order to be successful in fourth grade math.

Talk to your resource teacher about about preparing your child for state testing in the spring. This year Perfection Learning will be available for your child to use to practice key skills that will be tested.

Please visit the Valley Oaks website often. This year there are more opportunities than ever for your child to get involved. We offer a variety of field trips that will benefit your third grade student so sign up in the front office on a first come first serve basis.

Don’t forget to get involved in our Enrichment Program. Sign-up for the 2nd/3rd grade block September 12th at 10:00 online on our website. Once your child is signed up in a block they will remain in that block and rotate through a variety of classes throughout all four Enrichment Sessions. In addition to science, math, art, social studies, and writing, your child will be involved in music and P.E. throughout the year.

The Third Grade Team,
