3 年生のスペリング、読書、国語 - セッション 3

We will target many challenging spelling patterns such as spl-, spr-, words with the /s/ and /j/ sounds, days of the week, months of the year, holidays, and more!  We will strengthen reading comprehension skills such as locating information in text, using non-fiction text features, inferring, predicting, sequencing, evaluating, and more to truly understand what is read.  We will work to strengthen writing skills by applying correct language arts standards for capitalization, punctuation, composition, and organization.


This class will make use of three Spectrum workbooks as a guide to navigate these subjects.  We will discuss each topic, explore multiple examples, and have multiple opportunities for students to practice newly learned skills both with teacher assistance and independently.  We will also be using a cursive writing workbook to learn to form cursive letters, words, and sentences.

Students should have a solid mastery of short and long vowel spelling patterns, digraphs, and consonant blends, along with a minimum reading level of DRA 24/Fountas and Pinnell Level L/Lexile 530 to have success with this level of instruction.  

Classes will be held over Zoom with a combination of teacher slides and projected pages to enhance learning.  We will have a lot of discussion and interaction.  My behavior expectations are that students will be polite to others, prepared each day with completed assignments, and know how to utilize the Zoom features such as chatting, pinning, and annotating.  Spelling quizzes will be given using whiteboard.fi and students should be able to follow directions for accessing that site.  Materials for class should be readily accessible for each class period and students should come to class eager and ready to work.
