Third grade at Maplebrook is a year of tremendous growth in responsibility and ownership. Third grade will learn many strategies to increase comprehension, such as making connections, asking questions, inferring and determining importance in text. Reading is presented in a variety of settings including guided reading groups, read to self, and read to someone. Writing instruction will involve a process approach. At the beginning of the year, we are most interested in a generation of good ideas and interesting ways of writing. Throughout the year the students will be able to incorporate the 6 traits of writing in a variety of pieces.

In math, third graders develop number concepts, strengthen addition and subtraction skills, explore geometry, learn strategies for multiplication, and problem solve.

The students will participate in scientific inquiry as they experience the wonders of science. We will explore the solar system, concepts of light and habitats. In the area of social science, our program emphasizes the community systems of Chicago, Japan, and Medieval Europe.
