Portrait of a Mustang-3rd Grade
As a 3rd grader here at Holy Family, we will be learning about our Discipline of Christ Virtues. We will grow with Christ, practicing our virtues when learning at school, out in public, and at home to be strong leaders for our futures. We will investigate the words-
Justice, Prudence, Fortitude, and Temperance meanings and how we can use them with our peers adn in all kinds of situations.
In religion, we will be studying how to find scriptures in the Bible. Jesus's life, Saints and we have weekly Mass on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 8-9am.
In 3rd Grade, myself and the students will be working hard to build on fluency in math and reading when reading and solving problems at their own levels. Third grade continues to practice handwriting and will be contining to write with no stress (cursive-optional). The students will continue to practice structure sentences and paragraphs as the year flows on. The class will have investigations with some of the science lessons. I am also excited to talk about Social Studies.
