3rd Grade

Welcome to third grade at Ada Christian-- a year of new beginnings and transitions. You now join the “purple hallway”--the start of the upper elementary years. Third-graders receive their very own Bible; learn to use textbooks for the first time, are introduced to the wonderful patterns God has placed in multiplication and division, and switch from learning-to-read to “reading-to-learn.” Just-right chapter books chosen from the classroom library are at the heart of reading. We share our thoughts and ideas creatively in our Writer’s Notebooks. We explore God’s wonderful world through our science and social studies units and experience some of it first-hand with field trips, projects, and celebrations. Come join us as we learn and grow as third-graders in God’s World!
