and accept consequences for breaking them. Having class rules will
make a third grade classroom run more smoothly.

the meaning. |

3. Goals: Aims/Outcomes-
|
Third graders learn what it takes to be a good reader. They have
a better handle on what to do when they don't understand a word or
passage, like looking at pictures in a book for clues. They'll often
discuss books in small groups and ask questions about what they're
reading. They'll summarize and use graphs to organize their thoughts
about the books they read. Their teacher will introduce many literary
genres and a variety of print forms. In third grade, children start
putting the learning pieces together to take on more complicated assignments.
As they continue to apply the basic skills they learned in first and
second grade, they begin to do some work independently rather than
with the explicit directions given in earlier grade levels.

word choices

Use outlines to write a story or book report that has a beginning,
middle, and end
Write in a variety of styles, including informative, creative, and
persuasive writing
Keep a journal to practice personal writing and handwriting skills
Understand written instructions and follow them independently
Listen actively to a speaker in the classroom, whether that is the
