Moskauski Minutes

Hello third grade families!  Happy Monday!  Here is this week's Moskauski Minutes.  Have a great week!  :)
 
IOWA TESTING: IOWA testing for the students who qualified is scheduled this week for tomorrow and Wednesday.  Just like the COGATS, there is not really any way to study or prepare for the tests.  Please just ensure that your child has a healthy dinner and breakfast and a good night's rest!  :)
 
SCHOLASTIC BOOK ORDERS: If you would like to order books from Scholastic, book orders are due by tomorrow.
 
CURRICULUM NOTES: We will be continuing the same learning objectives from last week into this week (see below).  We will wrap up the two weeks with reading and math assessments on Friday. 
 

READING HOMEWORK: For this week's reading comprehension homework I am sending some practice with an informational text.  This is an EOG practice passage and each day there is a different reading task.  Please make sure your child takes their time completing each assignment and also uses their best test-taking strategies for tonight's practice. 
 
COMMUNITY SERVICE:  The holiday season is a great time for giving and helping those less fortunate.  This is a wonderful opportunity for your child to complete their second quarter community service requirement.  If you need any suggestions or ideas--please let me know.  :)
