In third grade, students learn and grow every day!  They participate in a variety of learning experiences and are challenged to become the best students they can be.  In language arts, students participate in phonics, reading, and writing skills lessons to develop their fluency and reading comprehension as well as written expression and editing skills. In math, our students focus on applying their addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division skills to real-life problem-solving scenarios.  They apply their scientific critical thinking skills while learning about animal life processes, water cycle, soil, and simple machines.  In social studies, ancient cultures come alive as students learn what life was like in ancient Egypt, China, Greece, Rome, and Mali.  Across all content areas, our third graders use technology, critical thinking skills, problem-solving, and collaborative learning to grow as learners.
