Today in math class we began a new unit on geometry. In this unit we will be defining 3 and 2 dimensional shapes. We will also be diving into different classifications of triangles and quadrilaterals. Today we build many 3D shapes paying special attention to vertices, faces, and edges. It was quite a fun thing to do! Feel free to download and print off some of our 3D shapes to make at home by clicking the link below.

On Monday I will take a snapshot of my grade book to make progress graphs for parent teacher conferences. These graphs will show your child’s performance over time relative to themselves, and the graphs will show how your child is performing compared to the typically learning third grader. Our district report card will cover how your child had done achieving curricular benchmarks. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. Can’t wait to see you all at conferences!
