Social
Studies
We have completed our Building Healthy Relationships Program with Mrs. Kelly. Thank you so much for your help with this important program. Be on the lookout for our 3rd grade picture in the newspaper. We will begin a Map Skills Unit in Social Studies after the Thanksgiving Break. A list of 12 "map"
related words will be sent home soon. We will be discussing these more in class as we learn to read and interpret a map correctly. An assessment over these words and definitions will be given later on in December.
