We had a crazy and fun week! We dove into our new IB unit. Ask your child about all of the knowledge they have constructed about rocks! On the website, under the more tab, you will see that I have added the 3rd grade study guide for the Milestones. In NO way is this mandatory, but instead a reference guide for you to look over with your children. We have been looking at the rubrics as we analyze and evaluate the work we are producing. Please let me know if you have any questions. Be sure to check the Dojo stories for pictures from our super fun field trip to the Fernbank!
