Math CURRICULUM INFORMATIONWe are using the EUREKA MATH program this year. We hope to complete Modules 1-6 this year. Please visit Great Minds at https://greatminds.org/math for more information.
District 41 follows the Common Core Math Standards for Grade 3. You can find these math standards on the Common Core Math website: www.corestandards.org/Math/Content/3/introduction/ DIFFERENTIATED MATH INSTRUCTION BASED ON NEEDS
The 3rd grade STEAM teachers are committed to meeting the mathematics needs of all students through a variety of different teaching structures. One way we do this is by utilizing other staff members to team teach, either through the push-in model, where there may be more than one teacher working in the classroom, or a pull-out model, where small groups or individual students may leave the room to work more intensely on a concept. Our team will be working closely with each other, Ms. Farral, Ms. Bauer, , Mrs. Kissane, and other Lincoln staff members throughout the year to provide math intervention and enrichment opportunities to individuals and groups of students as the need arises. Groups are flexible and will change based on student needs for each unit of study. Science CURRICULUM INFORMATIONThroughout the course of third grade, students will learn about Physical Science, Life Science, and Earth Science. Please visit the NGSS website for specific standards and StemScopes for curriculum support.

techNOLOGY APPLICAtioNThird graders will use technology in a variety of ways this year. We are fortunate enough to have daily access to Chromebooks housed in our classrooms, and can visit websites to support our curriculum, play games to reinforce skills, and use web-based programs to practice typing, math facts, and more.
Be sure to check out the "Learning Links" page on this website for other helpful resources and websites to use for literacy and STEAM! Engineering CURRICULUM INFORMATIONWe will continue to embed the Engineering Practices throughout our year. Students continue to look at each step of the Engineering Design Process and make connections to real-life situations.
