December has been a busy month for
Third Grade. Some of the children have been sharing their Immigration Projects with
their class. It has been wonderful learning about all the different heritages that are present at Manatee Bay. The children have discussed
the book Molly’s Pilgrim and compared and contrasted it to themselves and the Pilgrims
of long ago.
The children are working hard mastering their multiplication facts
and learning about the inverse operation of multiplication which is division. When
the children return in January they will be taking the BAT 2 test during the week
of January 13-17. This is a test that works as a tool to help us prepare your child
for the FCAT in April. Please remember that all students must pass the FCAT reading
test as it is used for criteria for promotion to Fourth Grade.
